The words involving unwaivable <a href="http://www.fearnotlaw.com/">statutory rights</a> are added to the second sentence of the first full paragraph on page 10, so that the sentence reads: <i>Gentry</i> confirmed that <i>Discover Bank</i>s reasoning was not confined to <a href="http://www.mcmillanlaw.us/">consumer actions</a> involving <a href="http://www.fearnotlaw.com/">miniscule damages</a>, and extended <em>Discover Bank</em>s rationale to wage and hour cases involving unwaivable <a href="http://www.mcmillanlaw.us/">statutory rights</a> where a class action waiver could likewise be exculpatory in practical terms because it can make it very difficult for those <a href="http://www.sandiegohealthdirectory.com/">injure</a>d by unlawful conduct to pursue a <a href="http://www.fearnotlaw.com/">legal remedy</a>.</p><br /> <br /> <p> 2. Add to the list of attorneys representing plaintiff and respondent, Lisa Murphy: Ellen Lake from the Law Offices of Ellen Lake.</p><br /> <br /> <p> These modifications do not change the judgment.</p><br /> <br /> <p>_____________________________ ___________________________</p><br /> <br /> <p> Marchiano, P.J.</p><br clear=all><br /> <br /> <p></p><br /> <br /> <p><b>TRIAL COURT:</b> San Francisco County Superior Court</p><br /> <br /> <p><b>TRIAL JUDGE:</b> Honorable Ronald E.
