Disney Loses Early Effort To Stop Pay Equity Suit From Moving Forward
With LaRonda Rasmussen and seven more of the probable plaintiffs in the otherwise empty DTLA courtroom of Judge Daniel Buckley today, the simmering and potentially multi-million dollar matter survived the legal shiv of the entertainment giant to cut it up and knock it out in one go.
Rejecting Disney’s demurrer “does not mean they get blanket discovery into everything and anything,” Judge Buckley caution Disney’s clearly displeased main lawyer Felicia Davis of Paul Hasting LLP as she sought to blunt his tentative ruling issued just before the hearing began. “I don’t know sitting here if every one of those 100 companies engaged in that practice,” Andrus noted of the corporate structure of the full breadth of the Disney and how its pay inequity is established.
“Their theory is women are paid less than men, you know exactly what they are complaining about,” the LASC judge told Davis and the court. “Discovery will flesh out how you address the different categories of employees or different categories of sub-classes,” he added as Davis argued that the class “should be dismissed or narrowed.”
