It takes a village to do what's being done here.
I'm not saying all of them.
But enough of them.
In the plant, out in the pit, and even up in the offices...
...all with the foot on the throat of every woman in that mine.
So, it's not just my client who needs relief from this court, Your Honor.
We are asking for an injunction to protect all the women.
Further, we ask the court to certify a class.
A class made up of every woman working at Pearson...
...because every one of them deserves protection under the law.
Doesn't a class actually require more than one plaintiff?
This complaint was filed on behalf of one Josey Aimes.
The key word being "one."
By comparison, we have affidavits from 13 women...
...all stating there have been no incidents of abuse...
That is not true.
Sit down.
It's not true.
Your Honor, are you as confused as we are?
I don't think Miss Conlin is supposed to be waving around a pile of paper
without letting us see it first, is she?
No, she's not. Miss Conlin.
They'll be submitted to the court today, Your Honor.
It doesn't matter what kind of document they've been intimidated into signing
- Give me a break. - Please.
- Get me three plaintiffs. - Your Honor, please.
If those affidavits are legitimate, you shouldn't have an objection.
I'll continue to hear evidence on Aimes v. Pearson, et Al.
If you find three plaintiffs
with similar grievances, I'll give you your class action.
Thank you, Your Honor.
