HOUSTON – An employee of a suburban Houston nightclub is suing his employer following an alleged violent incident on the premises three months ago, recent Harris County District Court records show.

Terry Barnes filed a lawsuit against BMB Dining Services (Webster), Inc., doing business as Studio 80 Houston, on Aug. 27 in the Harris County 129th District Court.

In the 8-page original petition, Barnes says he was working at Studio 80 as a porter last May 5 when a fight broke out. The plaintiff alleges that he “was violently struck in the face, head, and body” with a barstool.

According to the suit, the business failed to nip the brawl in the bud though Barnes called for the bouncer.

Consequently, the plaintiff seeks unspecified monetary damages.

He is represented by Jeffrey N. Todd of The Todd Law Group, PLLC in Houston.
