In a case filed in the Midland/Odessa Division of the United States District Court for the Western Division of Texas, lawyers from Dunham & Jones, P.C. have sued Diamond Grand Garden, Inc. and Jatinderpal Bajwa, Individually. Defendants employed the Plaintiff, Juan Figueroa, as a cook and paid him a salary without additional compensation for overtime hours. As the lawsuit alleges, merely being paid a salary does not necessarily mean an employee is not entitled to overtime pay. Plaintiff is suing for unpaid overtime, additional amounts as penalties, attorney’s fees, and costs.
