Law money 05

HOUSTON – A former general service technician for an auto repair business alleges he is owed unpaid wages.

Percy M. Jones Jr. filed a complaint on May 15 in the Houston Division of the Southern District of Texas against Louetta Automotive Group LLC and Shane F. Wilson alleging that they violated the Fair Labor Standards Act.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that during his employment with the defendants from April 1, 2015, through May 8, 2018, he regularly worked more than 40 hours per workweek without receiving proper overtime compensation. 

The plaintiff holds Louetta Automotive Group LLC and Wilson responsible because the defendants allegedly failed compensate him at a rate of no less than one-and-one-half times his regular rate of pay for each hour worked in excess of 40 in per week.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks unpaid wages, interest, attorneys' fees and costs and all other relief that is lawful and equitable. He is represented by Charles L. Scalise and Daniel B. Ross of Ross Law Group in Austin.

Houston Division of the Southern District of Texas case number 4:18-cv-01584
