IIRC a case regarding older workers being laid off/fired to make way for lower paid replacements was,some years ago,decided by SCOTUS in favor of the company doing the firing.

You’re right. My former employer, a Fortune 100 company, was awaiting the outcome of that case before deciding to lay off hundreds of long-term, 50+ year-old employees (me included). Fortunately I was able to retire at that point.
