The Class action lawsuit alleges that the company's alleged failure to provide the legally required meal breaks and paid rest breaks is evidenced by their business records which contain no evidence of these breaks.

Additionally, the lawsuit states that the truck drivers working for the company in California were allegedly paid on a piece-rate basis.
