PORTLAND, Ore. (CN) - A former worker at The Hemp and Cannabis Foundation (THCF)
says the clinic refused to pay him overtime wages after he worked more than
80 hours a week during "crunch time in the garden."

Andrew Hangerud says the medical marijuana clinic suddenly locked him out of
its garden in May, refused to pay his final paycheck, and kept $10,000 in
greenhouse equipment and tools that he brought from home.

Lake Perriguey filed Hangerud's lawsuit in Multnomah County Court.

Brett adds: This of interest to medical cannabis patients in California as The Hemp and Cannabis Foundation (THCF) has several locations in California. A copy of the complaint filed is at http://www.courthousenews.com/2009/07/01/Cannabis%20Foundation.pdf
