It is with much regret that it has come to this. It has been almost a year since the California State Labor Commission has awarded my wife a settlement in her case against her former employer MusicTalk Inc. Sarah worked for them for a long time as a paid employee and then the paychecks stopped coming. Bobbie Brown made repeated promises that this would be resolved as soon as she got her funding check.
Here is an excerpt from their current web site (I redesigned their web site but yanked it when my wife was not paid):
“Through many years of music education experience with people of all ages, Bobbie Brown, a founder and CEO of Music Talk Inc., has always known how therapeutic music can be.”
Unfortunately she doesn’t know that not paying your employees is illegal.
As a result of these delinquent salary checks, and the multiple failed promises by Bobbie Brown and the Board of Directors of MusicTalk Inc., Sarah was forced to bring this before the labor commission and was awarded a settlement. I have attached the court documents.
If you have information that would help the courts in settling this matter, are considering this program for funding, or are a member of the board of directors for this non-profit corporation please be aware if this information and contact me through this site. Thank You.
