Carter v. Figueroa Group
Plaintiff and appellant Brandi Carter filed a complaint against defendant and respondent Figueroa Group, Inc., alleging a number of Labor Code violations and other employment-related claims. She sought to certify a class of individuals who performed as nude or semi-nude dancers at a club owned and operated by the Figueroa Group. The trial court denied the motion, ruling appellant failed to meet her burden to satisfy each element of the community of interest requirement necessary for class certification. She did not show either that common questions predominated or that she was a typical and an adequate class representative.
We affirm. Substantial evidence supported the trial court’s order.
