    They demanded more than $1 million in back and overtime pay and damages.The 11 workers, who were brought to the U.S. on visas between 2009 and 2014, were told they would have jobs in the bakery or as a nanny. But once they arrived in California, they had to clean and paint an apartment complex and do laundry and yard work for bakery owners Analiza and Goncalo Moitinho de Almeida, the lawsuit states.
