H&H Bagels Settles SDNY Class Action For $17 For Each Week Worked

SDNY COURTHOUSE, July 9 –    H&H Midtown Bagels East was sued by its employees in 2018 for wage violations.
On July 9 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge John G. Koeltl held a fairness hearing about a settlement. Inner City Press covered it.  
On the line were a number of employees / class members. Some had not heard about the case; they were told to remain on the line and hear from class counsel afterward. John Koeltl caught typos and more in the proposed settlement.
 It seems that workers will be getting some $17 dollars for each week they worked for the company.
The case is Salazar v. P.V. Bakery, Inc. et al., 18-cv-4153 (Koeltl)
