US Supreme Court Agrees to Hear Osceola, IA Taco Bell Overtime Dispute

The Supreme Court announced it will consider whether an  hourly fast-food worker from Osceola, Iowa, who alleges that she was denied overtime pay, is required to take her proposed wage-and-hour class-action lawsuit against a large Taco Bell franchisee to arbitration, instead of pursuing it in federal court.  The Supreme Court approved the Petition for Certiorari on Nov. 15, in an unsigned order. The Respondent, Sundance Inc., owns upwards of 150 Taco Bell franchises throughout the country. The Petitioner, Robyn Morgan, worked at the Osceola, Iowa franchise as an hourly employee for three months in 2015.
