MIAMI – An assistant to the controller is suing an asphalt manufacturer over claims of unpaid wages.

Eric Rodrue filed a complaint on Feb. 3 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida against General Asphalt Co. Inc., alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that he was paid only the flat rate for all hours worked every week. The plaintiff holds General Asphalt Co.
