How Does This Settlement Work? Sample Clauses

How Does This Settlement Work?. In this Action, Plaintiff sued on behalf of herself and all other similarly situated employees who were employed by Defendant as non-exempt employees in California at any time during the Class Period. Plaintiff and these other current and former employees comprise a “Class” and are “Class Members.” Those Class Members employed by Defendant as non-exempt employees in California at any time during the PAGA Timeframe are also “Eligible Aggrieved Employees.” The proposed Settlement of this Action is a class and representative action settlement, meaning the Settlement resolves the Released Claims of all Class Members, except for those Class Members who exclude themselves from the Class by requesting to be excluded in the manner set forth in Section No. 8 below, as well as the PAGA Released Claims of all Eligible Aggrieved Employees.
