California Court of Appeal
Safeway, Inc. v. Super. Ct, B255216
In a putative class action against grocery store companies for violations of the Labor Code and the unfair competition law (UCL), Bus. & Prof. Code section 17200 et seq., a petition for writ of mandate seeking to vacate the grant of certification is denied where real parties' evidence supports the reasonable inference that in the context of a class action, they could establish that petitioners engaged in the alleged practice, that is, they never paid meal break premium wages, even though a significant number of employees accrued them.
