A lawsuit by three older Circuit City employees, alleging the retailer violated California age-discrimination laws by laying them off because they were earning too much, is part of a surge in age-bias complaints from baby boomers. The lawsuit, filed this week, also reflects employers’ contrasting attitudes toward older workers, experts say. Plaintiffs Daniel Weidler, 57, Michael Yezback, 59, and Eloise Garcia, 66, all from Circuit City’s Oxnard store, were laid off last week among 3,400 workers nationally. Those employees were earning “well above the market-based salary range for their role,” according to a company statement, and will be replaced with lower-paid new hires.
