5 MONTH TRIAL – $2,000,000.00 SETTLEMENT AFTER FIRST PHASE

Mr. Young represented 33 Plaintiffs in a prevailing wage claim concerning eight LAUSD renovation projects. The jury returned a verdict of $566,000.00 and a finding of “clear and convincing” entitling Plaintiffs to proceed with a second phase for punitive damages. The parties settled, agreeing Defendants would pay a cumulative $2,000,000.00 in exchange for Plaintiffs’ waiver of the right to proceed with further phases of trial.
