Dukes v. Walmart will now NOT proceed as a class action. A unanimous Supreme Court essentially said that there is insufficient evidence that even if there was individual discrimination against the woman in question, or even a group of women in Dukes' location, there is insufficient evidence of a company-wide policy of discriminating against women to allow the case to proceed as a class action. If couse, the case will still proceed as an individual claim. But the fact that this even proceeded this far as a class action and required such a huge expenditure of resources is disturbing.
