Settlement of Age Discrimination Case Against CAA

The Honorable John Shepard Wiley, Jr. preliminarily approved the settlement of the final television writers age discrimination lawsuit, against Creative Artists Agency, LLC ("CAA") on Monday, March 19, 2012. The settlement does not provide for monetary payments to plaintiffs, settlement class members, or the lawyers for plaintiffs, but does provide for CAA to make a monetary contribution to the Television Writers Fund for the Future ("FFF"), to provide consulting services to the FFF, and to adopt a written non-discrimination policy applicable to CAA's representation decisions and train its agents concerning the policy.
