Las Vegas bar demanded $4,000 payment from employee robbed at gunpoint

Looks like he is suing the bastids
An ex-bartender at a South Summerlin, Nev. sports bar/gaming venue filed a lawsuit this week in state court. He is challenging how his paychecks were deducted to repay over $3,900 that he handed over to an armed bandit who demanded money.

One gaming law professor, Robert Jarvis… agreed that “The Lodge did everything wrong. And Parker did everything right.”
“It simply boggles the mind that the Lodge did what it did — its conduct is simply outrageous,”
Jarvis added he was not surprised that Parker turned down the Lodge’s $5,500 settlement offer. If the case goes to trial, a jury is going to be very sympathetic to Parker, Jarvis said.

If I were advising Parker, I would advise him to hold out for at least six figures,” Jarvis suggested.
