WalMart to face massive class-action lawsuit, more than 1 million women may sue the retailer for sexual discrimination.
Cohen Milstein Partner Joseph Sellers is interviewed on ABC's World News with Diane Sawyer regarding the April 26, 2010 federal appeals court decision which exposed Wal-Mart Stores Inc. to billions of dollars in legal damages when it ruled a massive class action lawsuit alleging gender discrimination over pay for female workers can go to trial.
In its 6-5 ruling, the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals said the world's largest private employer will have to face charges that it pays women less than men for the same jobs and that female employees receive fewer promotions and have to wait longer for those promotions than male counterparts.
