The following excerpt is from Barajas v. Ortiz-Nance, F079179 (Cal. App. 2021):
The legal basis for each of plaintiff's claims is not entirely clear from the record, but some claims are necessarily based on alleged violations of one or more IWC wage orders. We know this because the judgment refers to a claim for unpaid minimum wages, and certain documents show plaintiff's reliance upon Labor Code section 1194.[4] [A] claim under [Labor Code] section 1194 is in reality a claim under the applicable wage order and thus subject to the order's definitional provisions. (Martinez v. Combs, supra, 49 Cal.4th at p. 63.)
