This is the best summary I could come up with:

“After 10 months of pressing them in every direction we have succeeded in getting Twitter to the table,” attorney Shannon Liss-Riordan wrote in a memo to clients that was quoted in a Bloomberg article today.

“X is complying with a court order to mediate, a person familiar with the matter said, asking not to be identified discussing private information,” Bloomberg wrote.

A class action filed in November 2022 alleged that Twitter (which was recently renamed “X”) violated the federal and California Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Acts.

The lawsuit sought financial damages, alleging that laid-off employees weren’t given severance or the required notice.

Allegations against X include “failing to pay laid-off employees promised severance payments, discriminating against employees on the basis of sex, race, age, and disability, failing to pay promised bonuses, violating the WARN Act (Family and Medical Leave Act) and FMLA, and other violations,” the lawsuit said.

“We are very proud to be representing nearly 2,000 former Twitter employees, in individual arbitrations as well as more than a dozen class action lawsuits in court,” Liss-Riordan said in a statement yesterday, according to Bloomberg.
