Trump’s longtime personal driver sues for overtime

President Donald Trump’s longtime personal driver filed a lawsuit against Trump’s company yesterday alleging that Trump owes him more than US$200,000 in unpaid overtime wages. Noel Cintron, 59, who said he served as Trump’s driver for more than 20 years, alleges that Trump did not pay him the time-and-a-half overtime wages required under New York state law. Instead, he was paid a flat yearly salary, which was set at US$62,700 about 2003 and rose to US$75,000 in 2010, according to his suit. Cintron – who still worked for the Trump Organisation in security as of yesterday, according to his lawyer – served as Trump’s driver until mid-2016, when the Secret Service took over.
