Case 4:08-cv-04988-JSW Document 54 Filed 07/15/10 Page 2 of 4
On May 19 2010, Defendant Ernst & Young LLP ("Defendant") filed an

administrative motion to apply this Court's ruling with respect to Defendant's motion

for summary judgment as to Plaintiff Michelle Richards to the claims of Plaintiffs

Joseph Landon and Sarah Fernandez ("Plaintiffs ) as well, thereby dismissing their

claims for injunctive relief with prejudice and dismissing their meal and rest break

claims without prejudice.

After considering this motion, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT the motion is

GRANTED for the following reasons:

1. Plaintiffs lack standing to seek injunctive relief because they are no longer

employed by Ernst & Young and therefore are no longer subject to the employment

practices at issue in this action. 12 2. Plaintiffs' claims for meal and rest breaks are dismissed without prejudice

13 because the California Supreme Court is currently considering the standard that will

14 apply.
