The court of appeals a district court judgment dismissing a case. The court held that California department store employees failed to state a California Labor Code “day of rest” violations based on stretches of work exceeding six consecutive days, where those days did not fall within a single workweek, but instead overlapped successive weeks.

Christopher Mendoza and Meagan Gordon sued former employer Nordstrom, Inc., under California Labor Code Private Attorneys General Act of 2004 (PAGA), alleging violations of California's “day of rest” statute, Labor Code §551, based on their having worked, on various occasions, seven to 11 consecutive days without a day off.
