MSR Electrical Construction Company

Description

Between December 2012 and December 2015, defendants were granted more than a dozen public works contracts from three government agencies, including the New York City School Construction Authority, which contracted the defendants to complete electrical work at multiple public schools in Brooklyn; the New York State Office of General Services, which contracted the defendants to perform work at a psychiatric center in Queens; and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), which contracted the defendants to perform services at five MTA locations in Manhattan and Queens. The defendants stole more than $700,000 from workers by failing to pay prevailing wages on these public works projects.
