Lawyers for employees of a Georgia-based manufacturer yesterday urged the Supreme Court to allow a lawsuit that accuses the flooring company of suppressing workers' wages by recruiting illegal aliens.
Even though the case involves the politically explosive matter of illegal labor, it arrived before the justices because of a dispute over the lawsuit's use of the Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) -- a law traditionally used to prosecute organized crime.
