Ruling

1. CASE # CASE NAME HEARING NAME CAMACHO VS EYECARE MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY CVRI2203096 SERVICES PARTNERS APPROVAL OF CLASS ACTION MANAGEMENT, LLC. AND PAGA SETTLEMENT Tentative Ruling: Appearances requested to discuss:

1. Why are attorney fees of 35% of the GSA appropriate in light of the amount of the settlement and the lengthy delay in bringing the motion for preliminary approval (nearly two years)?

2. Class release refers to plaintiff Camacho; PAGA release to plaintiff Turner—why not refer to both plaintiffs in both releases? PAGA release does not refer to the claims alleged in the operative complaint—why not?

3. Section 7 of the notice is a little confusing—first it says you won’t get any money from “the Settlement” but then that you will receive a share of the PAGA Payment. Maybe clarify this.

4. Add to section 10 of the notice the full title and date of filing of the document to which the settlement agreement is attached (Declaration of Vartan Madoyan in Support of Plaintiffs’ Motion for Preliminary Approval of Class Action and PAGA Settlement filed April 21, 2026, Ex. 1) and the Court’s street and web addresses.

5. Need to select date for hearing on final approval (order, ¶ 14).

6. Revise order, ¶ 17, to require administrator to give notice to any class member who made a written objection if the hearing on final approval is continued.
