After years in the making, a federal judge issued a final approval on a multi-million dollar settlement, with thousands of drivers as class members.
SAN FRANCISCO (CN) — A federal judge Thursday granted final approval of an almost $25 million settlement for approximately 60,000 Grubhub California delivery drivers, after a decade of litigation left them wondering if resolution was possible.
U.S. District Judge Jaqueline Scott Corley was eager to issue her 20-page order on the final settlement, saying it was many years in the making.
During the early days negotiating the settlement, Corley homed in on the terms of the deal, which would resolve claims through the present day.
“We are pleased this long-running case has reached conclusion and look forward to distributing the settlement to Grubhub drivers,” Liss-Riordan said in an email.
