[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 178971, member: 1912"] Points irrelevant here. That has never been my argument. What I have been commenting on is the california class action process where our drivers are joined into this lawsuit whether they wanted to be or not. Joined in even if they were not affected by this issue. There should be a process as there is outside of california where possible litigants are informed and have to physically do something to join the lawsuit. My second point has been that there is a contractually supported grievance process in place that very few if any california drivers ever took advantage of. The contract should have dictated that this case be heard through the grievance process first. If the litigants exhausted the grievance process and then pursued the case then the teamsters should have been co-defendent in the case. However the super liberal california court system allows a hand full of litigants the opportunity to circumvent the grievance process and enjoin thousands of upsers who do not have to do anything to join the case all into one big fishing expedition. The process stinks and highlights why there are so many of these BS cases in California. There is not and never will be much sympathy for a UPS in this case but somewhere down the road californians will have to pay for these lawsuits. Large companies will try to avoid building in that state. In fact many do now. [/QUOTE]
