Georgia V. Bar Vegan Llc Et Al

Morgan Georgia, a former employee of Bar Vegan LLC, has filed a collective action lawsuit against the company and its owners, Aaron Mattison, Jason Crain, and Aisha Cole. The lawsuit alleges that Bar Vegan violated the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) by failing to pay minimum and overtime wages to hourly employees, including retaining tips received from customers. The proposed class of plaintiffs includes all servers and bartenders who worked at Bar Vegan in Atlanta, Georgia within the past three years. The lawsuit seeks to recover unpaid wages and tips for the plaintiffs, including liquidated damages and attorneys' fees and costs. The defendants are accused of willfully violating the FLSA by claiming a tip credit against their federal minimum wage obligations with respect to the plaintiffs and paying them only $2.13 per hour in direct wages. The plaintiffs are also requesting a trial by jury and any other appropriate relief to which they may be entitled.

United States of America v. Robert Hunter Biden

Summary: Hunter Biden is currently embroiled in a lawsuit, accused of purchasing a Colt Cobra revolver in October 2018 while allegedly using illegal substances. Despite denying drug use on the necessary paperwork, if found guilty, he could face a maximum of 25 years in prison along with substantial fines. Biden's defense team contends that the charges are politically driven, asserting that Biden's temporary possession of an unloaded firearm did not constitute a public safety risk. They intend to contest the charges, leveraging an agreement with the prosecution, recent federal court decisions, and potential Second Amendment defenses. This case could potentially ignite wider discussions about Second Amendment rights, especially as the Supreme Court is poised to deliberate on a related issue concerning gun ownership for individuals subject to domestic violence restraining orders. Opinions are divided among political and legislative figures, with some speculating that advocates of the Second Amendment might oppose the law that prohibits gun ownership for drug users.
