This a collective and class action pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) and Rule 23 of the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure (“NRCP”), to recover tips unlawfully withheld and misappropriated by Defendant while Plaintiff and similarly situated employees previously worked at or are working as slot attendants. By subjecting the Plaintiff and other similarly situated Tipped Employees to the Defendant’s tip pool or tip share, the Defendant unlawfully withheld, deprived, or confiscated tips belonging to the Plaintiff and others similarly situated Tipped Employees. Defendant violated the FLSA to which protections and benefits Plaintiff and those similarly situated were and are entitled and instead maintained a tip pool and tip confiscation policy that is not authorized by and in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
The Parties participated in early settlement negotiations with the Hon. Carl W. Hoffman through JAMS in January 2024. They were unable to reach a resolution at that time but continued their settlement discussions and reached a tentative settlement in March 2024.
Notices of the settlement were mailed to Class Members in July 2024, and settlement checks were mailed out in October 2024.
