Case: Wage & Hour/Unpaid Wages (E.D.N.Y.)

A federal district court recommends partially granting a motion for default judgment on Fair Labor Standards Act and New York Labor Law claims brought by food service workers against Bushwick Public House, Chispa, and their owner, finding liability for minimum wage violations and unlawful tip retention, but awarding damages to only two named plaintiffs who provided sufficient evidence, while denying without prejudice damages claims for other plaintiffs and class members due to insufficient proof.
