    Well, then, Tesla just won.

    Class actions always benefit the defendant (and lawyers). When’s the last time individuals in a class-action saw more than $5?

      If they win, I have a hard time believing Tesla would only be fined $30,000. With only 6000 workers, the settlement could be a decent amount.
