UPDATE 5/7/10

On January 6, 2009, Outten & Golden filed suit against Mazer Corporation ("Mazer") seeking to recover 60 days wages and benefits for former employees of Mazer under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (the WARN Act). We contend Mazer ordered mass layoffs on or about December 30, 2008 without providing the employees with advance written notice. The case is pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. Counsel requested the Court entered judgment against Mazer for failure to respond to Counsel's complaint. That motion is currently pending before the Court.

On November 19, 2009, Outten & Golden filed a related WARN Act suit against ABMD Limited in United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Ohio, based on ABMD Limited's connection to Mazer.

Counsel moved to certify the class and the parties are engaged in initial discovery.

Generally, the WARN Act requires companies to provide their employees with 60 days written notice in advance of a mass layoff or plant closing. In the absence of such notice, employers may be liable to each affected employee for 60 days wages and benefits.
