292. The acts of BAM LLC (in consultation and collaboration with BAM and BN), as
8 alleged herein, have been reckless and/or intentional, in that BAM LLC (in consultation and
9 collaboration with BAM and BN), in conscious disregard of Raffaelli’s rights, acted so as to cause 10 Raffaelli to suffer a loss of employment benefits and to suffer the injury, humiliation,
11 embarrassment, emotional distress and hardship alleged herein. As a result, Raffaelli did suffer 12 and still does suffer emotional distress, anxiety, stress and worry because of the wrongful conduct 13 of BAM LLC.
