Walt Disney Company which has given some female-centric films like 'Moana' and 'Snow White', is now looking to pull itself out of a lawsuit alleging that it is creating gender bias by paying women less than men. The suit filed by a firm named Andrus Anderson LLP claims that Disney's hiring and pay practices are causing a discriminatory effect on women employees.

The firm is representing 10 women Disney employees who allege that they are being paid less by tens of thousands of dollars than their male counterparts, reported Variety. Disney on Friday filed a demurrer which denied any above-mentioned claims. The company also argued that the plaintiffs' claims are "anecdotal" and can't form the basis of a class action.
