An employee of a recreational vehicle park has filed a lawsuit against her employer that claims she was not paid for the hours she worked in excess of 40 per work week.
Terri Sandles filed suit against John O. Wright on June 22 in the Eastern District of Texas, Beaumont Division.

Sandles is represented by Charles L. Scalise of Ross Law P.C. in Austin.
A jury trial is requested.
