The Court has allowed or conditionally “certified” a collective action lawsuit that may affect you.

WHAT IS THIS LAWSUIT ABOUT

A Pizza Hut delivery driver who worked for ITL Foods, L.P. at a location in the Dallas Metroplex, Adam Barker, filed this lawsuit on behalf of himself and other current and former delivery drivers, alleging that they were paid less than minimum wage under the FLSA in light of the costs and expenses incurred by using their personal vehicle for deliveries.

The delivery driver alleges he and other delivery drivers are entitled to recover lost wages from ITL Foods, L.P. because he alleges ITL Foods, L.P. failed to pay a mileage reimbursement rate that fully compensates delivery drivers for all of their vehicle related expenses, causing their wages to fall below the federal minimum wage during some or all workweeks. ITL Foods, L.P. vehemently denies the delivery driver’s allegations.

Please refer to the NOTICE TO CLASS MEMBERS to advise you of how your rights under the FLSA may be affected by this case and describe how to participate in this case if you want to.
