ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR DECERTIFICATION AND DENYING PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION TO INTERVENE ADDITIONAL CLASS REPRESENTATIVES
Defendants’ Motion for Decertification of Classes and Plaintiffs’ Motion to Intervene New Class Representatives came on regularly for hearing before this Court on duly 10, 2000. After considering the materials pre *408 sented by the parties, the argument of counsel, and the case file, the Court concludes that maintaining a class action is inappropriate. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Defendants’ motion and DENIES Plaintiffs’ motion.
I. Factual and Procedural Background
The Court has previously recited the factual background in this ease at length. See O’Connor v. Boeing North American, Inc., 92 F.Supp.2d 1026 (C.D.Cal.2000) (“O’Connor SJM”); O’Connor v. Boeing North American, Inc., 180 F.R.D. 359 (C.D.Cal.1997) (“O’Connor I”). The Court, therefore, will not reiterate here the factual background causing this litigation. Similarly, the Court has described the procedural background in this case recently in O’Connor SJM. For purposes of this motion, a brief review suffices.
