The California Supreme Court's decision in Turrieta v. Lyft clarifies that aggrieved employees cannot intervene in each other's PAGA actions, reinforcing finality for settlements.
This ruling brings much-needed certainty to employers by preventing overlapping claims from disrupting settled PAGA actions, thereby reducing potential litigation chaos and confusion.
In upholding the Court of Appeal's decision, the California Supreme Court emphasized the importance of allowing settled PAGA actions to conclude without interference from other aggrieved parties.
The ruling is a significant win for employers amidst frequent PAGA litigation, as it provides assurance that settlements will not face challenges from third-party aggrieved employees.
