Opposition to MSJ: Arg. II.A
II.A · No compliant meal periods

Coastal Foods failed to relieve its crew for compliant meal periods. Plaintiff’s supervisor testified that breaks were routinely cut to about eighteen minutes during peak shifts, and the company’s own time records show at least fourteen short or missed breaks. On summary judgment, Defendant bears the initial burden of showing Plaintiff cannot establish a violation. And Brinker requires the employer to ensure employees take their breaks.

MisconstruedBrinker, 53 Cal.4th 1004

The Court held the employer’s duty is to provide a meal period, relieving employees of all duty, not to ensure breaks are taken (at 1040).

Bench review · read as a skeptical judge

StrengthThe deposition and time-record evidence raise a clear triable issue on the meal-break claim.

WeaknessThe “ensure” framing of Brinker invites a reply that guts the argument. Fix before filing.

TightenTie each disputed fact to the separate statement (Code Civ. Proc. § 437c(b)).

Why we built this
§

Litigation too often comes down to who can afford more hours.

We experienced it firsthand — fighting (and winning) battles of attrition against companies with bottomless legal budgets. We built Lexabrief to even the odds, putting serious research and drafting power in the hands of solo practitioners, small firms, and the people the system was never priced to serve.
