Disputes and settlements
Misclassification and nonpayment of drivers
In April 2014, the company reached a class-action settlement of $800,000 with drivers in Massachusetts who accused the company of misclassifying them as independent contractors to save money.[6] In November 2015, a class action law suit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging that workers were denied overtime payments, were unlawfully denied earned compensation, and for other violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act.[8] The results of this litigation are pending.
Cigarette settlement
In September 2014, LaserShip reached a $5 million settlement with the city of New York over deliveries of untaxed cigarettes. The original suit alleged that LaserShip had delivered more than 120,000 cartons between 2011 and 2013 violating federal and state laws and resulting in tax losses of 1.9 million. Under the settlement agreement, LaserShip ended all cigarette shipments.[9][10]
