Another setback for Activision Blizzard: The judge denies his request to suspend trial for harassment

The year of Activision Blizzard will go down in history as one of the most complicated image level for a videogame company. The company has long faced several demands for harassment and discrimination, and the issue has escalated to such an extent that the Commission of Bols and Values ​​of the United States and the State of California have entered the process.

Last week, Activision Blizzard issued a resource to try to suspend the demand of the Equality Department of Employment and Housing, which had to intervene not much to avoid a possible destruction of evidence. The EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunities Commission) is a third of the conflict, and the existence of a possible conflict of interest in relation to the different attorneys involved was the main reason to try to lie down.

Judge Dillon has denied the resource ensuring that the petition was unfounded However, we have known thanks to Gamesindustry that The judge has dismissed the petition of the company. Timothy Patrick Dillon, from Los Angeles County, has denied the resource ensuring that the petition was unfounded, although we still do not have many more details about the argument followed to make the decision.

This new reverse arrives in a complicated situation for the image of Activision Blizzard as a company, although from within they ensure that they have taken disciplinary action. As a face washing, at the video game level, they are trying to have good initiatives, such as the free change offering after the modification of one of the overwatch characters.
