38.  Plaintiff has actual knowledge that the FLSA Class Members have also  been denied overtime pay for hours worked over forty (40) per workweek as well.   Plaintiff worked with and communicated with other Appraisers, and as such, has  personal knowledge of their existence, status as Defendant’s employees, salary  compensation scheme, and the overtime violations.     39.  Other employees similarly situated to Plaintiff worked for Defendant  in a similar capacity and were not paid overtime at the rate of one and one-half their  regular rate when those hours exceeded forty (40) hours per workweek.  Other  employees similarly situated to Plaintiff worked for Defendant in a similar capacity  and were not reimbursed for expenses such as gas and use of their vehicle.   54.  Plaintiff brings this action as a class action pursuant to Rule 23 of the  Federal Rules of Civil Procedure on behalf of the “California Class,” which is  comprised of:  All current and former Appraisers employed by  Defendant in California at any time during the four year  period prior to the filing of this Complaint through the  present.   55.  Numerosity.  The number of members in the California Class is  believed to exceed forty.  This volume makes bringing the claims of each individual  member of the class before this Court impracticable.  Likewise, joining each  individual member of the California Class as a plaintiff in this action is  impracticable.  Furthermore, the identity of the members of the California Class  will be determined from Defendant’s records, as will the compensation paid to each  of them.  As such, a class action is a reasonable and practical means of resolving  these claims.  To require individual actions would prejudice the California Class  and Defendant.
