Just months after a federal judge decertified a class action suit charging retail giant Wal-Mart with complicity in janitorial contractors’ abuses of illegal aliens, a second attempt has been filed — one that looks suspiciously like the first.

Both suits also include a subclass consisting of class members who were falsely imprisoned or otherwise confined by the company’s alleged practice of locking employees inside Wal-Mart stores while they worked.
