ECF No. 150.

On August 15, 2014, two putative class members filed objections to the proposed
settlement. ECF No. 154. They contend that the scope of the settlement’s release provision
potentially includes claims that are being litigated in another putative class action, captioned Mata
v. Manpower, Monterey County Case No. M127969.
Good cause appearing, the court now orders as follows:
No later than August 26, 2014, Manpower shall:
1.
Respond in writing to the objections and issues raised by the Mata putative class
members in ECF No. 154 and its supporting declarations;
22
2.
Identify any other pending lawsuits involving claims asserted by individuals who
23
are putative class members in this action and that could potentially fall within the
24

27
28
scope of the release provision in the settlement in this action; and
3.
File proof that Manpower has given notice to counsel in any such additional
lawsuits of the pendency of this action and of the proposed settlement.
1
Once the Court has reviewed Manpower’s August 26 submission, it will determine
2
whether further action on the Court’s part is required. For now, the September 4, 2014
3
preliminary approval hearing remains on calendar.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
