Mendoza v. Mayer Roofing
Angel Mendoza and Salomon Vasquez (the Plaintiffs) appeal a judgment entered by the superior court after it granted a motion for judgment on the pleadings, on collateral estoppel grounds, in favor of their employer, Mayer Roofing, Inc. (Mayer), as to their class action allegations. The Plaintiffs contend that the superior court erred in concluding that the denial of class action certification in a prior action against Mayer by another set of employees bars them from seeking to certify a class in this action. Because we agree Mayer did not meet its burden to show that the prior denial of class certification bars this proposed class action as a matter of law, Court reverse the judgment and remand the matter for further proceedings.
