Facts: The case involves a dispute between the plaintiffs, representing a class of employees, and Ocean Pacific Hotels Ltd. regarding the termination of extended health benefits contrary to the terms of their employment agreements.
Issue: The key issue was whether certain admissions made by the plaintiffs could be withdrawn without consent from Ocean Pacific or leave of the court, and whether the plaintiffs' claim could be certified as a class proceeding.
Court's Ruling:
The court ruled that the plaintiffs could file their Proposed Amended Notice of Civil Claim (ANOCC) with specific conditions that certain admissions could not be deleted.
The plaintiffs' claim was certified as a class proceeding, and Tonia Lee and Jerome Bansagon were appointed as the representative plaintiffs.
Costs/Damages Awarded: The document reviewed does not specify the amount of costs or damages awarded to the successful party. The focus was on the certification of the claim as a class proceeding and the conditions for amending the ANOCC.
