Naqi v. Blacklane North America, Inc.

What this case is about

A worker named Naqi has filed a class action lawsuit against Blacklane North America, a company that provides chauffeured car and limousine services. The plaintiff alleges that Blacklane failed to properly pay its workers in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act, the federal law that sets minimum wage, overtime, and other basic employment standards. The case likely involves claims that drivers or other workers were not paid at least the federal minimum wage, were denied overtime pay when they worked more than 40 hours per week, or were otherwise misclassified in a way that deprived them of wages they were legally owed. The proposed class would likely include current and former drivers or other workers employed by Blacklane North America who experienced similar wage violations.
