In a certified class action regarding unpaid vacation and public holiday pay, the plaintiffs moved to settle a discovery plan, and the defendants brought a cross-motion to amend the certified common issues and approve an alternative discovery plan.

The court dismissed the plaintiffs' motion, finding their proposed discovery plan to be disproportionate, unnecessary, and abusive, as it sought extensive electronic searches and oral discovery beyond the scope of the common issues.

The court granted the defendants' cross-motion, approving their revised common issues and their more proportionate discovery plan.
