• holding that class certification was appropriate where one element of a conjunctive test was susceptible to common proof
• finding prongs A and B of Illinois ABC test could be satisfied through common evidence
• proceeding directly to the ABC analysis where the defendant delivery service used drivers who were incorporated
• holding Illinois wage law not preempted
• “Because the test is conjunctive, if BeavEx cannot satisfy just one prong of the test, its couriers must be treated as employees.”
