Wilken, J.
ORDER GRANTING IN PART PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF HOFFMANN-LA ROCHE NOTICE
Plaintiffs Martin Lewis, Aaron Cooper and Anissa Schilling, on behalf and themselves and a class of those similarly situated, allege that they were misclassified under federal and state wage and hour laws. Plaintiffs move the Court to certify conditionally this action as a representative collective action and to authorize and facilitate notice of this action to prospective collective action members. Defendant Wells Fargo opposes this motion and objects to the notice and opt-in form that Plaintiffs have prepared. The motion was decided on the papers. Having considered all of the papers filed by the parties, the Court grants in part Plaintiffs’ motion for approval of a Hoffmann-La Roche notice.
