Judge orders mediation in janitors' wages suit against Target
"About 29 former janitors who cleaned local Target stores will be able to present their case to a mediator in hopes of resolving their lawsuit with the mega retailer over claims of unpaid wages.
U.S. District Judge Xavier Rodriguez on Thursday issued a ruling ordering Minneapolis-based Target Corp. and the plaintiffs to submit the case to mediation.
The unpaid wages and damages are estimated to be between $1 million to $2 million, which includes the San Antonio workers and a companion case pending in Houston federal court, said Bill Beardall Jr., lead attorney for the workers."
