INFORMATION FOR EMPLOYEES OF
EL APPLE, INC. (AppleBEE'S
FRANCHISE)
You may need
Adobe Reader to view these files.
In
July, 2007 we filed a
complaint on behalf of
tip pool participants against El Apple, Inc., John Verlander, and James
Gore. This case seeks minimum wage and overtime compensation under the Federal
Fair Labor Standards Act.
How do I get
involved?
To get involved in the
lawsuit, you must complete a
Consent Form
and return it to us immediately for filing with the Court. If you do not
return this
Consent Form, we cannot include you in the lawsuit.
How long do I have to join
the suit?
You should join the
lawsuit immediately if you are eligible.
There is a statute of
limitations in this case that only allows you to recover pay for
minimum wage and overtime hours worked within 2 years of signing up for the lawsuit. If
we can prove the company willfully violated the law, the statute of
limitations may be extended to 3 years.
Additionally, we are
actively working to resolve this case either through a judgment or
through negotiation. If you delay, the case may be resolved before
your claims can be added.
Therefore, it is
important that you return your
Consent Form
immediately to avoid losing overtime pay because of the statute of
limitations.
How can I get more
information?
If you believe you are
eligible to join this lawsuit or have any questions about this case,
please contact my law office at (214) 528-6500. If you believe you
have a case similar to this one, please complete an
overtime claim submission form for
review.
