ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of doing business, we are subject to claims or proceedings from time to time relating to the purchase, development, and sale of real estate and homes and other aspects of our homebuilding operations. Management believes that these claims include usual obligations incurred by real estate developers and residential homebuilders in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, these matters will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Class Action Lawsuit
On May 23, 2023, a class action lawsuit was filed by Rikki McAlister, a former sales representative, on behalf of herself and all others similarly situated, in the District Court of Arapahoe County, State of Colorado, against LGI Homes Corporate, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, alleging violations of Colorado employment law, including failure to pay overtime compensation, failure to provide rest periods and improper deductions from wages. On November 21, 2023, the lawsuit was removed to the United States District Court for the District of Colorado, which granted the plaintiff’s motion for class certification on December 6, 2024. The plaintiff in the lawsuit is requesting as damages, on behalf of the plaintiff and all members of the class, unpaid back wages, unpaid minimum wages, unpaid overtime compensation, reimbursement for unlawfully-deducted wages, compensation for rest periods not provided, certain mandatory and additional penalties, reasonable attorney’s fees and incurred costs. We have responded to the complaint and intend to defend ourselves vigorously against the allegations.
