California Court of Appeal

In a class action against defendant arising out of its uniform, wage, and break policies, judgment approving the terms of a settlement agreement is vacated and remanded upon the objection of a class member where the trial court did not sufficiently investigate the terms of the settlement to ensure that the consideration being received by the class members was fair, adequate, and reasonable.
