On May 3, 2024, Bradley King, David Hager, and Sharon Peacock, former Mortgage Sales Employees (MSEs) at City National Bank of Florida, filed a putative class and collective action lawsuit alleging that City National Bank violated the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and the Florida Minimum Wage Act (FLMWA). The Plaintiffs allege that the bank failed to pay minimum wages and overtime compensation due under the law.

Specifically, Plaintiffs claim they were instructed to block report their time as 8 hours per day, Monday through Friday, regardless of actual hours worked. The Plaintiffs seek to recover unpaid wages, unpaid overtime and minimum wages, liquidated damages, and attorneys’ fees.
