2 Citing cases

  1. Ibarra v. Chuy & Sons Labor, Inc.

    322 Cal. Rptr. 3d 125 (Cal. Ct. App. 2024)

    This allows the LWDA the opportunity to " ‘ "act first on more ‘serious’ violations such as wage and hour violations and give[s] employers an opportunity to cure less serious violations." ’ " (Santos v. El Guapos Tacos, LLC (2021) 72 Cal.App.5th 363, 369, 286 Cal.Rptr.3d 919 (Santos).)

  2. Wood v. Kaiser Found. Hosps.

    88 Cal.App.5th 742 (Cal. Ct. App. 2023)   Cited 3 times
    Explaining that the Legislature was concerned with massive underenforcement of labor laws causing state revenue losses

    The text of section 2699, subdivision (a) plainly says so. (See Santos v. El Guapos Tacos, LLC (2021) 72 Cal.App.5th 363, 372, 286 Cal.Rptr.3d 919, [stating that "as a matter of law" a PAGA claim is " ‘brought by an aggrieved employee on behalf of himself or herself and other current or former employees’ "].) In light of the express language in PAGA's section 2699, subdivision (a), it would be surprising for the Legislature to refer to an enforcement action "on behalf of the public" if it meant a PAGA claim.
