Another pizza delivery driver lawsuit has been brought by former Iowa delivery driver Zeeshan Baber against Mona Lisa, LTD and owner Kevin See. The company presently operates several Domino’s Pizza franchises in Texas. The lawsuit is alleging that the company uses flawed methods of reimbursement for pizza delivery driver mileages. Additionally, delivery drivers are using personal vehicles to deliver food to customers and are responsible for the costs accrued. These costs are usually gasoline, maintenance and repairs, insurance, and depreciation. Consequently, pizza delivery drivers are not left with much. These rates fall below any reasonable estimate of the expenses the pizza delivery drivers incur. This is causing their wages to fall below the federal minimum wage. Additionally, the IRS increased the mileage rate to 62.5 cent per mile through December 2022. This comes as a response to rising gas prices.
The case is called Baber v. Mona Lisa, LTD et al, pending in the Eastern District of Texas.
