ATLANTA — A federal judge has ordered a Peachtree City auto repair shop to pay back wages and overtime to nine workers, including one who had been given his last paycheck in the form of 91,500 pennies.
A OK Walker Luxury Autoworks and its owner Miles Walker must pay $39,934, while complying with federal wage law and removing all references to a former employee from its website, according to the decree issued last week by Judge Timothy Batten of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia.
Reached via email, an unsigned message from Walker or a representative expressed doubts about the fairness of news coverage and declined comment. “Thanks, but no thanks,” the message said.
