GH man wants OT from TC-area resort

The former tennis pro at a northern Michigan resort is calling "fault' over his pay. Patrick Bruining of Grand Haven recently filed a lawsuit, claiming he's owed overtime for working at Grand Traverse Resort & Spa, which is in Acme Township near Traverse City. He worked for six months until April and said he was wrongly classified as a salaried employee. Bruining said he regularly worked more than 40 hours a week handling lessons, tournaments and other duties.

In response to the lawsuit, the resort denies that any overtime is owed and said Bruining was a contractor who received health insurance.

Bruining is a former star tennis player at Aquinas College in Grand Rapids.
