P1173 The right to sue on behalf of another is not assignable, so assignments to a union by some members of their rights under a Labor Code section that permits any aggrieved employee to sue on behalf of all similarly situated employees does not confer standing on the union to bring a class action or an action under the Unfair Competition Law on behalf of members who have not assigned their rights.CitationAMALGAMATED TRANSIT UNION v SUPERIOR COURT (Representative Assignment) 148 CA4 39 [See: LabC 226.7; Essex v Five Star 38 C4 1252, T/AT 8/06]
