In Parra v. Bashas’, Inc., 536 F.3d 975 (9th Cir. 2008), the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a district court ruling and held that current and former Hispanic workers at Bashas’ grocery stores had established commonality in their class action claims that Bashas’ engaged in pay discrimination in violation of Title VII. The Court of Appeals held that the plaintiffs had presented “extensive evidence showing Bashas’, Inc.’s discriminatory pay practices commonly affected all members of the proposed class.”
The class is represented by DCB and the Impact Fund.
