A judge has turned down a request for interim pay from former Rockstar employees who were recently dismissed, but the union representing them insists this setback doesn’t mean the company is off the hook. The case revolves around allegations of unfair dismissal, and while the judge noted that the standard to prove a “pretty good chance of success” at this stage is stricter than what will be required at the actual trial, the union remains confident Rockstar could still be found liable.
This decision leaves the dispute in a tense holding pattern as the legal battle unfolds, highlighting the difference between early procedural hurdles and the substantive issues still to be examined. For now, the fired workers won’t see the immediate financial relief they sought, but the union’s statement suggests that the fight is far from over. When the case finally goes before a full hearing, the lens on Rockstar’s actions may shift, potentially changing the landscape of this contentious dismissal saga.
