Landon Brinkman (“Plaintiff” or “Class Representative”) filed a lawsuit against CommandLink, LLC (“Defendant”) on behalf of himself and a class of similarly situated applicants for employment. The lawsuit, Brinkman v. CommandLink, LLC, No. 24-2-20778-3 SEA (the “Lawsuit”) is pending in King County Superior Court. Plaintiff claimed in the Lawsuit that Defendant’s job postings for open positions in the State of Washington did not disclose the wage scale or salary range being offered in violation of the pay transparency provision of the Washington Equal Pay and Opportunities Act, RCW 49.58.110. Defendant disputes Plaintiff’s claims and contends it has not violated the law.
