The Supreme Court just dismissed the massive gender bias case against Wal-Mart. The lawsuit claimed that 1.6 million current and former Wal-Mart employees were subject to discrimination. The women, headed by Betty Dukes, claimed they had been passed over for promotions and paid less than male employees.
The plaintiffs hoped for a settlement in the billions of dollars. They also would have set a precedent for gender discrimination at many corporations.
But Wal-Mart doesn't have to worry any more…..
