A federal judge dismissed much of a former Sony PlayStation employee's gender discrimination lawsuit against the gaming giant on Thursday, but is giving her an opportunity to make a stronger case.

In a 20-page order, U.S. magistrate judge Laurel Beeler dismissed 10 of ex-worker Emma Majo's 13 claims without prejudice, including those focused on pay discrimination and harassment.

Majo can amend those claims and try again, but will have to rebound from a ruling that says she hadn't stated enough details to make her case, particularly regarding alleged violations of the Equal Pay Act.

I hope she gets the additional info she needs for the case to move forward and for her to get justice. It seems Sony did wrong here.

Hopefully the case can get another shot, it needs to be investigated fully and accountability needs to be given.

This will never stop being an issue, Alabama banned medical care for transgender youth earlier this month. The US is on its way to fascism, with Republicans passing legislation like that, Dems being complacent (two sides of the same coin), and corporations being protected by the "justice" system. It's no surprise Majo is facing an uphill battle, hope she gets what she needs.
