Whistleblower Law Blog

In an article titled, “Ex-employees sue liquor store, bar owner Cash Moore,” Florida Daily News reports about Brenda Lowery’s whistleblower retaliation and overtime nonpayment lawsuit against local liquor store and bar owner, Cash Moore.  Ms. Lowery suffered retaliation when she reported to state authorities that she believed Moore’s company was engaged in illegal activity.  Ms. Lowery and other employees were also denied overtime payment for hours worked in excess of 40 per week because their employer paid them for regular time in two separate paychecks for their work performed in separate but commonly owned and managed stores.  The Employment Law Group® law firm is representing Ms. Lowery in her retaliation claims under the anti-retaliation provisions of the Florida Whistleblower Act, and is also representing Ms. Lowery and her coworkers by asserting overtime violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
