PREVIOUS UPDATES
Raisner Roupinian LLP filed a class action complaint on April 5, 2023, against Boxed LLC, Boxed, Inc., Ashbrook Commerce Solutions LLC, Jubilant LLC, and BOXED MAX LLC (“Defendants”) seeking to recover 60 days’ wages and benefits for terminated employees under the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (“WARN”) Act and the New York State Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (“NY WARN”) Act.
We contend the Defendants ordered mass layoffs beginning on or about March 13, 2023, and within 30 days of that date, without providing 60 days’ written notice as required by the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (“WARN”) Act or 90 days’ written notice as required by New York State Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (“NY WARN”) Act. The case is pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.
Subsequently, on April 4, 2024, the Court certified the WARN case as a class action, appointed the Plaintiff as the class representative, and Raisner Roupinian LLP as Class Counsel.
Importantly, the certified class (the “Class”) is defined as Plaintiff and all persons who worked at or reported to Defendants’ facility located at 61 Broadway, 30th Floor, New York, NY who were terminated without cause on or about March 13, 2023, and within 30 days of that date, as the reasonably foreseeable consequence of a mass layoff and/or plant closing by the Defendant per the federal and New York State Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (“WARN”) Acts.
Notice of the class action was mailed to all members of the class on October 7, 2024.
WARN ACT
Raisner Roupinian LLP will provide you with information regarding your rights in this case. The federal WARN Act requires companies with at least 100 full-time employees to provide them with 60 days’ written notice in advance of a mass layoff or plant closing. Additionally, certain states also have WARN Act laws.
Without the required notice, an employer may be liable for 60 days’ wages and benefits to each affected employee.
