JetBlue Airways Corporation
No Company is Too Big to Play Fair.On March 13, 2015, Nichols Kaster filed a Complaint on behalf of flight attendants employed by JetBlue Airways Corporation (“JetBlue”). The Complaint alleges JetBlue violated California state law by (among other things), failing to pay its employees minimum wage for all hours worked during their employment for work performed in the state of California. Instead, the Complaint alleges, JetBlue usually only pays its flight attendants for the hours after the plane left the departure gate until it arrives at the destination gate.
This case is entitled Christopher Booher v. JetBlue Airways Corporation, Court File No. 4:15-cv-01203-JSW (Northern District of California)
