Apple growers drop wage lawsuit
Now that harvest is over, a group of Washington apple producers have dropped their lawsuit against the federal government over prevailing wage increases. The legal challenge was “moot” once the apple harvest ended in early November, the growers’ attorney said. The mandated higher wages have all been paid now, said Peter Spadoni of Jeffers, Danielson, Sonn and Aylward in Wenatchee.
