What happened

James McGary filed a putative class action against Walt Disney Parks and Resorts U.S., Inc., apparently concerning labor-management relations. The case was removed to federal court and later remanded to Orange County Superior Court on the plaintiff's motion, but the docket text does not detail the specific alleged violations.

Do you qualify?

No settlement exists yet, so there is nothing to file and no class definition to check. If the case settles, the settlement will define exactly who qualifies — watch this case and we'll let you know.

How to file

There is no claim to file yet. If this case reaches a settlement, a claim process will open — usually with an official settlement website and a filing deadline.
