In April 2020, SGB’s co-counsel, the Mendez Law Firm, filed a class action lawsuit against Providence Health Services-Washington alleging that Providence failed to provide all legally required meal and rest breaks to nurses and technicians working in the emergency department at Providence Regional Medical Center-Everett and failed to fully compensate the employees for these missed breaks. The court certified this case as a class action on November 23, 2021. It is currently stayed in King County Superior Court in Seattle, Washington until resolution of the pending appeal in Androckitis v. Virginia Mason Medical Center, Case No. 20-2-07137-4 SEA.
