According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that he worked for more than 40 hours per week without being paid any overtime compensation. The plaintiff holds B-Buda LLC, B-Buda Boutique Inc., B-Buda Wholesale Inc., B-Buda Winwood Inc. and Buda responsible because the defendants allegedly failed to pay the plaintiff any overtime premiums at a rate of time-and-one-half for working more than 40 hours per week.
