Workers at 2 software companies have filed a class action lawsuit against Tyler Technologies Inc, and EDP Enterprises Inc, alleging that the companies have not paid overtime, and are therefore in violation of federal law.
The proposed class of employees includes customer liaisons, trainers and education service specialists, engineers, and customer service representatives employed as exempt salaried employees by the defendants during the last 3 years.
The suit alleges that the defendants violated the Fair Labor Standards Act by not providing additional compensation for any hours they worked over 40 hours per week. The plaintiffs are seeking damages for liquidated damages equal to the sum of unpaid overtime, attorneys' fees, court costs, and pre and post-judgment interest.
