One major thing that Elon Musk did almost immediately after acquiring Twitter was to lay off massive numbers of employees. Now, the company is being sued for "allegedly refusing to process" arbitration cases from ex-workers.

It was reported that there were 891 of these cases filed by the employees, according to the proposed class action lawsuit. The allegations are that the company blocked these cases from proceedings "by not paying initial arbitration fees."

This was important because, in a clause during layoffs, ex-workers were made to sign an agreement regarding receiving severance pay in exchange for arbitrating legal disputes. Employees must often cover the $1,500 initial filing fee for a case to proceed if they and the arbitration pursuant reach an agreement.

In November, Elon Musk announced that there would be no more layoffs after Twitter staff dropped from nearly 7,500 to 2,700 people. In April, it was reported that the new Twitter under Elon Musk had only 1,500 employees, according to CNN.

In May, Twitter won two lawsuits regarding the massive layoffs targeting women. This came from a California federal judge who has ruled the dismission of a proposed class action lawsuit.

The proposed lawsuit would have proposed that Twitter specifically targeted female employees in its layoffs.
