You are entitled to full pay for all mandatory and required time at work. If not properly paid all wages and overtime, you can file a claim with the Labor Commissioner. You have the right to hire an attorney, and the right to recovery of your attorney fees if you win. If serious about doing so, feel free to contact me.
