Law money 04

ST. LOUIS — A sandwich maker is suing Subway store operators, alleging violation of workers' compensation acts and failure to pay wages.

Calissa Martin filed a complaint on Oct. 10 in the St. Louis Circuit Court against Roya Moshiri and Healthy Meal Creations Inc., alleging that they Intentionally violated the Missouri Minimum Wage Law.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that, between 2014 and November 2016, she worked at the defendants' sandwich store at the Washington University campus without being paid the required minimum wage and proper overtime compensation for all hours worked above 40 per workweek. The plaintiff holds Roya Moshiri and Healthy Meal Creations Inc. responsible because the defendants allegedly improperly withheld wages, wrongfully withheld earnings tax from her paychecks and failed to pay their agreed hourly rate.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks judgment in her favor for double the amount of her unpaid regular and overtime wages, consequential damages, costs, attorneys' fees and other proper relief. She is represented by Richard A. Voytas, Nathan E. Ross and Ethan W. Gee of Ross & Voytas LLC in St. Louis.
