Cu et al v. Gabrielle Portia, Inc. et al 2:2014-cv-03669 is a collective action where a group of employees allege that their employer paid them by the day.

Mendez et al v. U.S. Nonwovens Corp. et al 2:2012-cv-05583 is a class action lawsuit where an employer allegedly refused to pay employees for all hours worked.

They also charge that when they worked past their shifts as requested, they were not paid. In addition, employees allege that they were not paid for all of the overtime hours they worked. They state that when they complained that their checks were short, the employer blamed them for not clocking in correctly. Of those who complained persistently about their missing pay, the employer would allegedly pay some weeks later and others not at all.

John Does v. Local Supermarket Chain is a collective action where an employer took advantage of a number of its employees by not paying overtime wages. In order to avoid paying time and a half for the overtime hours they worked, the employer claimed that these employees were "managers" and therefore exempt. Yet these "managers" had no managerial tasks or authority. Instead, they were often asked to perform unpaid work. When one client challenged the employer, he was fired.
