UNLAWFUL EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES
Electronic
Arts California Artists Overtime Litigation
Kirschenbaum v. Electronic Arts, Inc.,
Case No. 440876 (California Superior Court, San Mateo County).
Co-Lead Counsel in class action seeking to recover unpaid overtime compensation
for current and former computer graphics artists employed in California by
Electronic Arts Inc. (“EA”), the world’s largest manufacturer of computer video
games.
The case has now been settled after
the parties conducted formal and informal discovery, and reviewed thousands of
pages of company records. The settlement totaled $15.6 million, for
approximately 618 class members. We believe this is the first class action
involving recovery of overtime compensation for computer graphics artists in the
electronic game industry.

employee who has
