J. Battaglia grants the employees' motion to order a ship repair company to provide them with information concerning the identities of putative class members who have received settlement letters from the company and who have purportedly released their claims by signing settlement agreements checks. In order "to counteract the coercive nature of the employer-employee communications, the putative class should be explicitly instructed that they have more time to consider the officer, discuss with plaintiffs' counsel, and either complete the settlement or withdraw their prior release as they choose."

J. Crawford partly grants the employee's motion for discovery in her wage-and-hour class action against Nike Retail Services. Although the employee's request for the identification of all Nike Retail employees responsible for creating work schedules for the class members is overbroad, Nike is ordered to testify about its scheduling practices generally. Nike's practices "are more germane to class certification and the merits than the specific identities of the people carrying out those practices." Nike must also identify the various codes for different wage rates it uses on class members' pay statements.
