Hotel X Class Action

On March 16, 2022, a Class Action was filed against twelve Peter and Paul locations (“P&P”), and Princes Gate Hotel Limited Partnership and Princes Gate GP Inc. (“Hotel X”). We filed the class action on behalf of former employees for damages for what was alleged was their unlawful termination from employment in July 2020. A copy of the Statement of Claim can be viewed HERE.

On July 20, 2020, P&P filed a separate Claim in court against Hotel X, alleging that Hotel X’s actions caused P&P losses. One loss P&P claimed was a loss of over $2 million in monies owed to former P&P and/or Hotel X employees. 

P&P was successful after trial. Among other things, the Superior Court ordered that Hotel X pay damages of $2,063,000 to P&P to pay the employees through a separate process.  

Update and Next Steps

A distribution plan for those monies was approved by the court and is now being administered by a third-party trustee.  A copy of the Court’s formal Claims Procedure Order can be viewed HERE.

On January 5, 2024, the trustee sent out notices to eligible employees, advising them of the calculation of their termination pay and instructions on how to proceed.

Our firm has been appointed by the court to assist employees who dispute the trustee’s calculations and to act on behalf of anyone who did not receive a notice from the trustee but feels that they should be eligible to participate in the claims process. If you have not received a notice from the trustee, but believe you are eligible to receive a portion of the funds, you may contact us by email at HotelXClassAction@cavalluzzo.com.
