A joint motion filed Tuesday asks that all actions in the case be stayed until after the mediation session. The judge will be informed of the results of the mediation within 10 days.
The court documents indicate that not all defendants in the lawsuit are involved in the negotiations. Those who will be represented are Rangeline Drive-In (dba Sonic), the franchise owner D. I. Rogers Corp, and supervisors Frances Bentz and Chris Cote.
Not included are managers Chris Alred and Portland Keough.
Alred is facing felony statutory sodomy charges in Jasper County Circuit Court in connection with his actions toward the plaintiff.

I was very surprised to see Chris Alred's lengthy listing of charges on casenet--he's been dragged into court for drug and other offenses almost annually for more than the last decade. Is Sonic really so hard up for managers that they would hire this repeat loser and hand him the keys to the business?!? HR needs to review their hiring criteria--this isn't a case of giving someone who made a mistake a second chance, but turning control over to a chronic failure.
8:00- Sonic gets what they pay for here. Hope the profit was worth it.
Sonic does not own the restaurant. The D.L. Rogers Corp does. http://www.dlrogers.com/our-team.html
