3 Defending a financial services company in two California statewide class actions on behalf of managers alleging they were improperly categorized as exempt from overtime and customer service representatives alleging they were forced to work off the clock. Ms. Bodnar forced the two cases to be mediated together, arguing that the potential classes overlapped, and obtained a favorable settlement for the client.

Defending against two companion California statewide collective actions by airport shuttle drivers seeking overtime and unpaid wages under the California Labor Code and relief for unfair business practices under the California Business and Professions Code. In the first case, the trial court granted the motion to dismiss all of the plaintiffs claims except the claims for overtime pay. The California Court of Appeal reversed the trial court s ruling on the claims for overtime pay and compelled the case to arbitration. Following the decision by the Court of Appeal, the plaintiffs counsel withdrew from the cases and all named plaintiffs stipulated to dismiss their claims. Obtaining a dismissal of a class action brought against an airline by temporary service workers assigned to work for the airline s subcontractor. Defending a petroleum products company in a California statewide class action brought by truck drivers claiming that the company failed to follow California s unique meal period requirement rules.
