Charter Communications Settles Class Action Lawsuit Brought Against It On Behalf of Certain Charter Field Technicians For Alleged Wage & Hour & Overtime Pay Violations For $18 Million.
A class action lawsuit pending against Charter Communications in the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin (styled Marc Goodell, et. al. v. Charter Communications, LLC, Case No. 3:08-cv-00512-C), alleging that certain Charter employees were not adequately compensated or paid for all of the work they performed, has reached a proposed settlement, according to class action settlement news reports.
The Charter Communications wage and hour and overtime pay class action settlement reportedly includes a settlement class of current and former employees who worked for Charter in certain field technician positions in California, Missouri, Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois, Nevada, Washington, Oregon and Nebraska during specified class periods.
U.S. District Court Judge Barbara Crabb preliminarily approved the Charter Communications class action settlement on May 20, 2010. Under the proposed class action settlement, Charter reportedly has agreed to pay $18 million. The class action settlement is subject to the Court’s final approval.

Hoping an attorney or someone familiar with Charter’s unfairness to employees will contact me so I may give my experience. I am interested in becoming a part of this or any law suit I can!
Did you ever hear from anyone?
Did you ever hear from anyone Angela? Are you still working for Charter? I can email you a name off line of someone that may be able to help.
Hi Kathy,
Did you hear back from anyone regarding your post? How long were you at charter? What location?
I also would like to be contacted I have proof and have been working in a hostile environment, had also worked for free on a dialy basis a couple years back, and more and more its gets even worse I and many many people have suffered working for Charter Please can someone help us!
The things that sucked about that lawsuit was the fact that afterwards everyone who signed were never able to move or promote up and currently they are being discriminated against and terminated.
It’s not charter itself that’s to blame. From what I saw it was the fault of the Techops director who is creating a hostile work environment.The fact is that when his boss would go around to any of the outlaying offices he would also be there as well so know one would ever say anything that needed to be said. The thing that hit the most was that when you brought something to his attention he would dismiss it and the turn it around to make it look like you were at fault.
And there is more but who knows if it will ever come of anything
I know someone having similar issues. Are you still with Charter? What is the Directors name?
Thanks
