In what seems to be continuing fallout from Local 8 driving Elvis out of Portland, another Company has filed a lawsuit against 154 individual longshoremen claiming payroll fraud and RICO violations related to the practice of working 4&4.
This is what happens when you pour elk piss on the windshield of the grain company manager. Paybacks are a bitch.
The company is asking for $15, 934,881 in damages, divided by 154 individuals, which means each person would owe $103,473.25.
If every longshoreman working 4&4 thought they might have to pay back the money for the hours they were gone, would that end the practice?
Hell yes!
Here is the entire lawsuit.
Thanks Local 8, and Leal.
