Kaewsawang v. Fresh
Plaintiffs and appellants Phairoj Kaewsawang and Eddie Alsheikh appeal from an order denying their motion for class certification in an action against defendants and respondents Sara Lee Fresh, Inc., and Sara Lee Corporation (collectively Sara Lee), arising out of the classification of certain individuals as independent contractors. Plaintiffs contend that common questions of law and fact predominate as to whether the individuals who entered into certain distribution agreements with Sara Lee to transport and supply retail stores with Sara Lee products were independent contractors or employees. We conclude that the trial court did not abuse its discretion by finding that individual questions predominate. Therefore, we affirm.
