Outcome

The EEOC and Consolidated Edison settled an age discrimination case for approximately $3.5 million, providing lifetime annuity payments and lump-sum payments to terminated employees aged 40-65. The settlement was dismissed with prejudice, and the court denied subsequent motions by dissatisfied claimants seeking to opt out or challenge the settlement terms.
