Akin Gump’s Donna Mezias, a San Francisco-based labor and employment partner, was quoted by Daily Journal for its article “Suitable seating cases reassessed after minimal Kmart settlement” on “suitable seating” cases in California, taking as a jumping-off point the modest settlement in a June 2013 case involving a cashier class action suit against Kmart.

Mezias noted, “The lack of success for the plaintiffs in these cases so far should demonstrate that there's quite an uphill battle for them. They might not see as many of these cases filed."
