Attorney Sarah Steele and writer Bennet Pomerantz discuss the subjects of the day.
 
The audience should know that although Ms. Steele is a licensed attorney, she is not offering legal advice in any capacity, is not establishing an attorney/client relationship with anyone listening to the show, and recommends that any listener of the show consult a local attorney for any legal advice they may require.
 
This show is about us discussing hot topics and how they relate to the law.
 
Tonight we discuss the practice of poaching (and the avoidance thereof) between employers.  Walt Disney Company, DreamWorks Animation, Sony Pictures Animation, Pixar and Lucasfilm were named as defendants in a class action lawsuit filed in San Jose, Calif., that alleges the companies sought to suppress wages by agreeing not to poach each other's workers, effectively rendering the employees powerless to leave their job in pursuit of employment at any of the other companies. Tune in and listen as the hosts weigh in on employee’s rights versus the rights of the employers.
