Judge Denies Temp Res Order in California Ultimatum - October 15, 2007

The federal judge in the multi-district litigation case against FedEx Ground denied the drivers' lawyer's temporary restraining order to block the firing of all California single vehicle contractors.  The full October 12 order is available on the Alexander resource page.

Drivers should monitor FedExDriversLawsuit.com for the formal response from the plaintiffs' lawyers. 

Between 750 and 1,000 single vehicle drivers in California face the unenviable choice of accepting termination or signing new 'conditions' to becoming multi-vehicle contractors.  Drivers in the rest of the country need to reconsider their futures at FedEx Ground and FedEx Home Delivery.  The company seemingly won this round in the fight and may be emboldened to try to steamroll others in any place and at any time.
