EA Settles Overtime Lawsuit Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Electronic Arts has announced the terms for a settlement in their employee overtime litigation. This appears to be the end of the case that began a year ago with the famous EA Spouse livejournal.

Under the terms of the settlement, the claims of the alleged class will be dismissed, and EA will make a total payment of $15.6 million to cover all claims by the class members, plaintiffs' attorney fees, any incentive payments to the named plaintiffs and all administrative costs of the settlement. Any portion of the settlement fund that is unclaimed by class members will go to the Jackie Robinson Foundation, a national nonprofit organization that awards college scholarships to minority students, with a preference toward students interested in studying interactive entertainment.
There are more details at GameSpot or CNN.
