Wal-Mart sex-discrimination suit gains class-action status
A federal judge ruled to expand a Wal-Mart discrimination case into a class action potentially covering 1.6 million current and former female employees. The suit claims pay and promotion disparities across Wal-Mart stores nationwide since 1998. Wal-Mart plans to appeal while denying discrimination.
