A car dealership informed its employees in a written memo on September 26, 2007, that the business would close on October 7, 2007, unless a new owner could be found before then. The memo also said that it had not been possible to provide notice any sooner because intense efforts to sell the dealership had been underway and these efforts would have been further complicated by the absence of an intact workforce. At the time of the memo, the dealership had 150 employees. After the memo was issued, most of these employees stopped coming to work. By October 5, 2007 – which turned out to be the actual date of closure – only thirty employees were reporting to work. Did this employer violate the WARN Act? Why or why not?
