Civil - Unlimited  Other employment Motion Hearing (Civil) 37-2020-00033184-CU-OE-CTL KIM VS VEYO LLC [IMAGED] CAUSAL DOCUMENT/DATE FILED:

Plaintiff's Motion for Preliminary Approval of Class Action Settlement is GRANTED. (ROA 100.) The court finds there is sufficient evidence to conclude, on a preliminary basis, the proposed settlement is fair and reasonable. (Chaves v. Netflix, Inc. (2008) 162 Cal.App.4th 43, 52.) However, settlement class members are to be provided 60 days from the notice to submit a dispute, object, or opt out of the proposed class action settlement, rather than 30 days. In addition, the notice is to inform settlement class members that they may also object in person at the final approval hearing; a written objection is permitted but not required.

The final approval hearing is scheduled for March 29, 2024 at 8:30 a.m. in this department. This hearing reservation contemplates one set of moving papers and the papers are to be within the page limits. The moving papers are to be timely filed per Code.

Plaintiff is to submit a revised proposed order reflecting the above changes and the date of the final approval hearing.

The December 22, 2023 status conference is ordered VACATED.

As the court understands it, this settlement also resolves the plaintiffs' claims in the related PAGA action, Woods v. Veyo, LLC, Case No. 37-2021-00027881. Accordingly, the court VACATES the December 1, 2023 Motion for Preliminary Approval currently set in the Woods matter, and for which the court notes no moving papers were timely filed. The court sets a status conference in the Woods matter for March 29, 2024 at 8:30 a.m. to be heard concurrently with the final approval hearing in the Kim matter.
