Scale AI Worker Class Action

A proposed class action against Scale AI, Inc. and Smart Ecosystem, Inc. appears to have been filed by multiple individual plaintiffs.

Uber Contract Class Action

A proposed class action has been filed against Uber Technologies Inc., apparently alleging contract-related violations. The available docket text does not detail the specific allegations, but it shows the court granted Uber's motion to compel arbitration and stayed the proceedings, meaning the plaintiffs' claims may be resolved in arbitration rather than in court. These are allegations in a newly filed case and have not been proven.

“Recovery” and “exposure” refer to total disclosed settlement funds in associated cases, not money personally won or lost by an attorney. Settlements generally resolve disputed allegations without a finding that either side won. Data comes from public court dockets and may be incomplete.
