Attorneys for a man who was severely injured in a work-related incident at famed Austin restaurant la Barbecue have filed a personal injury and fraud lawsuit on his behalf.
Aaron Gomez lost four fingers on his dominant hand in 2016 “due to unsafe working conditions and training,” the lawsuit alleges.
The civil lawsuit was filed more than a year after the restaurant’s owner LeAnn Mueller and her wife, Allison Clem, who managed la Barbecue, wereCourt records show that due to her death, the case against her was dismissed. Clem is scheduled to go to trial on those felony criminal charges in Travis County at the end of this month.
The TDI indictment alleged that the eatery had been without worker’s compensation coverage since November 2014, but following Gomez’s injury, Clem contacted Paychex Insurance to obtain the coverage and asked the agent to backdate the policy to three weeks before the employee was hurt.“We believe the evidence will show that the Defendants engaged in a scheme to keep Aaron from presenting his case in front of a Travis County jury and recovering his full damages.
