On March 19, Potter Handy LLP filed a class-action lawsuit on
behalf of plaintiff Adonis Nabong and other similarly situated
employees against Bloom Energy Corporation for engaging in unfair
competition and violating labor codes in the state of
California.
The lawsuit, Nabong v. Bloom Energy, seeks monetary relief for
unpaid wages and interest from March 5, 2020, to the present day,
as well as disgorgement of all profits gained by the company
through its unlawful and fraudulent actions. The complaint alleges
that Bloom Energy used credit checks to discriminate against
employees and wrongfully terminated them, in violation of
California labor codes §§ 432.3, 1024.5, and 1102.5.
Mark Potter, founding partner of Potter Handy LLP, stated, "We
believe that Bloom Energy's actions not only violate labor laws but
also undermine the fundamental rights and dignity of its employees.
Our firm is committed to fighting for justice on behalf of Mr.
Nabong and other employees who have suffered due to Bloom Energy's
unfair business practices."
Lead counsel for the plaintiff, Jim Treglio of Potter Handy LLP,
added, "This is a groundbreaking case that sheds light on the
unethical conduct of companies like Bloom Energy. We are determined
to hold them accountable for their actions and seek justice for all
affected employees."
The lawsuit also demands an injunction to prohibit Bloom Energy
from further unlawful conduct and calls for the creation of an
administrative process for employees to claim their rightful wages.
Additionally, the plaintiff seeks restitution for all aggrieved
employees and a declaration by the court that Bloom Energy has
violated California's Unfair Competition Law.
Potter Handy Law Firm urges anyone who has been a victim of
Bloom Energy's discriminatory practices to come forward and join
the class-action lawsuit. For more information, please contact
