Recent trends in the Supreme Court and State and Federal Courts relating to class action law make it more important than ever to effectively maneuver through the legal landscape of wage & hour mass actions. Join us in an important discussion focused on ways to efficiently resolve non-class mass actions. Topics discussed by our panel of JAMS neutrals and plaintiff and defense employment lawyers will include:
- Developments in class certification of mass wage & hour claims
- Increasing focus on PAGA penalties, which may be immune to restrictions on class actions
- Uptick in individual wage & hour arbitrations given the enforceability of class action waivers
- Sample models to efficiently achieve settlement
