*1 Case 3:11-cv-00900-RS Document 52 Filed 12/20/13 Page 1 of 2 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA SAN FRANCISCO DIVISION JOSE GONZALES, et al., No. C 11-0900 RS Plaintiffs, ORDER DENYING LEAVE TO SEEK RECONSIDERATION v. SIMPLEXGRINNELL LP, Defendant. ____________________________________/ Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-9, defendant SimplexGrinnell moves for leave to seek reconsideration of the order granting class certification herein. SimplexGrinnell contends Comcast Corp. v. Behrend , 133 S.Ct. 1426 (2013) and Wang v. Chinese Daily News, Inc. , 709 F.3d 829 (9th 2013) represent new law with respect to class certification in wage cases, thereby warranting reconsideration. While both decisions arguably provide further guidance on how the principles of Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. v. Dukes , 131 S. Ct. 2541 (2011) should be applied to particular factual scenarios, neither represents an actual change in law or would require a different analysis or outcome here. Accordingly, leave to file a reconsideration motion is denied.
Case 3:11-cv-00900-RS Document 52 Filed 12/20/13 Page 2 of 2
IT IS SO ORDERED.
