Kimberly, do you read Pfizer as holding that, with a 17200 class action, there is a requirement to establish that every single member of the class suffered a monetary injury? So, for example, if you had overtime class action, at least as to 17200, unless you could show that each and every person worked overtime, class cert would be inappropriate? It sure seems to say that, but I can't believe the Cal Supremes would let that slide by.
