Sonic Air vs California Employment Development Dept. Division | Ground | Contractor Dispute | State Litigation | UPS | California

This case of UPS subsidiary Sonic Air vs California EDD is demonstrative of the California legal process for employers found to wrongly classify its employees as “independent contractors.” The Sonic Air tax case is a predecessor to the FedEx Ground vs. California EDD case.  The Sonic Air case started earlier than the FedEx Ground case and shows the possible outcome of EDD succeeding in defending its audits that found FedEx Ground single-vehicle drivers to be employees.
