Childress, et al. v. Ozark Delivery of Missouri, L.L.C.
United States District Court, Western District of Missouri, case no.: 09-3133
Filed: April 24, 2009

Our office along with Brown & Associates, LLC filed a collective action claim for unpaid overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) against Ozark Delivery of Missouri, L.L.C. on behalf of all employees working as delivery drivers of vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of 10,000 lbs. or less. The lawsuit alleges that Defendant failed to correctly pay overtime as required under federal law. This includes all employees of this defendant who worked not only in Missouri, but all other states.

At this time, this lawsuit is not a certified collective class action. It will only become a certified collective class action after the Court issues an order granting this status. We will seek this class status in the future.
