The Department of Justice said Thursday it filed a consent decree that will resolve its employment lawsuit against Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT) on behalf of Sean Thornton.
The consent decree will require the Bentonville, Ark., retailer to pay Thornton $12,000 in back pay, less income tax and other withholdings, if it is approved by the court.
The Justice Department filed the complaint March 31 in the U.S. District Court of Orlando, Fla., alleging Wal-Mart violated the law by not reinstating Thornton to his civilian job as a cashier in the Orange City, Fla., store, after he was discharged by the Air Force."
