Nick Doucet, individually and for others similarly situated, filed a complaint May 22 in the Houston Division of the Southern District of Texas against Boardwalk Pipelines LP, alleging violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
Doucet worked as a safety inspector for Boardwalk Pipelines from February 2018 through December 2018.
