U.S. District Judge James Donato on Friday ruled that five former Twitter employees pursuing a proposed class action accusing the company of failing to give adequate notice before laying them off after its acquisition by Elon Musk must pursue their claims in private arbitration.
The lawyer who represents the plaintiffs, Shannon Liss-Riordan, said on Monday that she had already filed 300 demands for arbitration on behalf of former Twitter employees and would likely file hundreds more. The judge said that before asking workers to sign severance agreements waiving their ability to sue the company, Twitter must give them "a succinct and plainly worded notice".
Veinglorious!
LMAO
Good. The only people who profit from class action lawsuits are lawyers.
I wonder what they did at Twitter?
The were all at-will employees/censors. Musk gave them an extra month’s severance than was required by law. Not sure why they thought they were special.
