Las Vegas firm named in wage suit

Wednesday, July 14, 2004 | 11:12 a.m.

The U.S. Labor Department has filed a lawsuit against Las Vegas construction company Pacific Stucco Inc. and principal Jim Pope alleging they at times failed to pay overtime and the minimum wage to 250 current and former employees over a two-year period.

The lawsuit alleges that the company's latherers, who worked as many as 50 hours a week, didn't receive overtime pay and sometimes were making less than minimum wage. The allegations are the result of an investigation that ended in May 2003.

Pope could not be reached for comment this morning.
