Workers Sue Eunice Seafood Facility - Acadiana's Multi-Media News Station

A crawfish and alligator processing facility in Eunice is facing a lawsuit. Two Mexican migrant workers filed suit against Riceland crawfish this week, seeking unpaid wages. The workers allege the seafood company often paid its employees from two- to four-dollars an hour for workdays that sometimes stretched for 15 hours. The lawsuit also alleges workers were not paid overtime for days that lasted ten to 15 hours.
