Legal Matters | NOTE 16. Legal Matters We are a party to litigation incident to our business, including claims for personal injury and/or property damage, bankruptcy preference claims, claims regarding freight lost or damaged in transit, improperly shipped or improperly billed. Some of the lawsuits to which we are party are covered by insurance and are being defended by our insurance carriers. Some of the lawsuits are not covered by insurance and we defend those ourselves. We do not believe that the outcome of this litigation will have a materially adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. On January 25, 2013, a complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California (Sacramento Division) by Salvador Robles against our subsidiary, Comtrak Logistics, Inc. The action seeks class certification on behalf of a class comprised of present and former California-based truck drivers for Comtrak who were classified as independent contractors, from January 2009 to the present. The complaint alleges Comtrak has misclassified such drivers as independent contractors and that such drivers were employees. The complaint asserts various violations of the California Labor Code, and claims that Comtrak has engaged in unfair competition practices. The complaint seeks, among other things, declaratory and injunctive relief, compensatory damages and attorney’s fees. We believe the complaint is without merit and intend to vigorously defend the action.
