Ep. 23: Will The Supreme Court End Worker Class Actions?

Can employers force workers to sign away the right to bring class actions, or does that violate federal labor law? That’s the issue the Supreme Court tackled this week, and senior employment reporter Vin Gurrieri joins the show to tell us all about his trip to the oral arguments and how the justices may be leaning. Also on this week’s show, we discuss a BigLaw firm sued by a former client despite winning the company a $42.5 million verdict, we check in on the latest charges over the failed Fyre Fest, and we say goodbye to rock legend Tom Petty with a story about his laid-back approach to legal matters.
