Former Outback Steakhouse server alleges wage law violations

Law money 12

TAVARES – A Clermont resident formerly employed as a server alleges he wasn't paid minimum wage.

Virgil Goodson filed a complaint on Jan. 12 in the 5th Judicial Circuit of Florida - Lake County against OS Restaurant Services LLC, doing business as Outback Steakhouse, alleging violation of the Florida Minimum Wage Act.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that he suffered damages from being paid wages at the rate less than the minimum wage. The plaintiff holds OS Restaurant Services LLC responsible because the defendant allegedly failed to pay the plaintiff the proper minimum wage and instead improperly used a tip credit.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks liquidated damages, all unpaid wages, interest, all legal fees and any other relief as this court deems just. He is represented by Tammy Hammack of Cohen Grossman in Maitland.
