Lawsuit claims popular Ypsi Depot Town restaurant wrongly pooled tips

A newly filed federal lawsuit  accuses the owner of a popular restaurant in Ypsilanti s Depot Town of making employees work off the clock, denying overtime by shaving their hours and unlawfully pooling tips. The lawsuit, which was filed in U.S. District Court in Detroit last week by two former employees seeking to represent a class of servers and bartenders who have worked at the restaurant, accuses Linda French and her restaurant, Sidetrack Bar & Grill, of violating state and federal labor laws. It alleges that the business required tipped employees to give back a portion of their tips so they could be redistributed to employees who did not work for tips, including hosts and dishwashers.
