Partners Sharon Vinick and Leslie Levy with attorney Patricia Pierce of Greenblatt, Pierce, Engle, Funt & Flores in Philadelphia, filed a wage theft class action lawsuit against the New York Jets NFL team. The lawsuit alleged that the cheerleaders, known as the “Flight Crew,” were not being paid minimum wage for all hours worked at weekly practices or rehearsals. Following the success of the Oakland Raiderettes lawsuit, Sharon and Leslie successfully settled the case for $325,000.
