Plaintiffs Overcome Summary Judgment Bid by Oracle in Gender-Based Wage Discrimination Suit
April 28, 2021
Monday’s decision handed victory to the three named plaintiffs in a wage discrimination suit, women who were employed in Oracle’s product development, support, and information technology departments in California, and the class they represent. The women filed suit against Oracle America Inc. in 2017, alleging that the company paid them thousands of dollars less per year than it paid men in the same roles. The California state court overseeing the employment class action denied Oracle’s motions in light of numerous issues of triable fact.
The suit claimed that the multinational computer technology company violated California’s Equal Pay Act (EPA) and unfair business practice laws for the unjustifiable pay discrepancy. In this week’s opinion, Judge V. Raymond Swope of the San Mateo Superior Court considered Oracle’s “early” motions for summary adjudication.
