People Ex Rel. Department of Labor v. Sackville Construction, Inc.

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that, despite lack of notice, the subcontractor’s failure to pay the prevailing wage subjected it to back wages and penalties under the Act
• holding that the failure of a public body to provide notice to a general contractor does not alleviate the obligation of the general contractor or its subcontractors to pay the prevailing wage to their employees
• analyzing language from the 2006 version of the Act, which was identical to that in the 2004 version, and holding that “the plain language of sections 1 and 4 requires payment of back wages at the prevailing rate regardless of any notice to the subcontractor that the Act applies”
• notice is not a condition precedent to the obligation to pay the prevailing wage
