GameDaily.biz recently covered Riot Games’ harassment and gender discrimination suit by current and former employees on November 7th, 2018.
Here is an excerpt:
As for the plaintiffs’ chances, attorney Brandon Huffman, founder of Odin Law & Media, sees this case continuing until it’s settled or tried.
I can’t know if it will succeed without knowing if the allegations made in the complaint are true, but I think the complaint alleges enough to survive a motion to dismiss,” he says. “If the allegations in the complaint are true, it is likely the plaintiffs would succeed at trial. It is more likely Riot would settle before trial to avoid the public spectacle. A hurdle here is the class certification process. Some of the claims (failure to prevent, for example) are probably completely appropriate for class treatment. Some of the others (harassment, retaliation) I would suspect the plaintiffs would have to show individualized evidence, which would make it hard to do as a class.”
