Electronic Arts California Software Engineers Overtime Litigation

Hasty v. Electronic Arts, Inc., Case No. 444821 (California Superior Court, San Mateo County).  Co-Lead Counsel in class action seeking to recover unpaid overtime compensation for current and former computer programmers employed in California by Electronic Arts Inc. (“EA”), the world’s largest manufacturer of computer video games.  The case was settled after the parties conducted formal and informal discovery, including numerous depositions and review of thousands of pages of company records.  The settlement totaled $14.9 million, for approximately 600 class members.  We believe this is the first class action involving recovery of overtime compensation for computer programmers in California.
