A Minnesota law firm is suing pillow magnate Mike Lindell’s company, alleging significant unpaid debts that stem from a separate lawsuit originally filed in 2020 and finally settled last spring.
In the underlying class action lawsuit, Brandon Deutsch sued MyPillow, Inc. as the lead plaintiff and representative on behalf of several call center employees.
The plaintiffs claimed violations of federal for “failure to pay overtime wages” and violations of state law for “failure to timely pay straight time wages,” according to an April 2023 federal court decision. In March 2024, the parties moved to settle. In May 2024, the court approved the settlement agreement. Now, MyPillow is accused of being significantly in arrears.
The company agreed to pay $36,866.38 to resolve the federal and state labor law claims, according to the lawsuit filed by St. Paul-based Johnson Becker, PLLC — a copy of which was obtained by Law&Crime.
