Workers under 40 were allowed to keep their shares under the same low-hour conditions.<img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="📅" title="Calendar    :date:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f4c5.png" data-shortname=":date:" /> Wrongful Death and Negligent Entrustment Trial (October 2026)• Case: Sarah Van Bogart v. Scheels All Sports and William Ballantyne• Trial Dates: Scheduled for October 26 to December 4, 2026, in Minnesota.• The Incident: In August 2022, 19-year-old Jordan Markie died by suicide inside an Eden Prairie, Minnesota Scheels store after an employee handed him an operable handgun.• Core Allegation: Backed by Everytown Law, the lawsuit claims the employee failed to check identification (the buyer legal age is 21 in Minnesota) and ignored signs of emotional distress or anxiety before handing over the firearm. A judge denied Scheels' motion to dismiss, sending the case to a jury trial.</blockquote>
