RNYK LLC and J & R Electronics Inc. (which do business as J&R Music World, J&R Computer World, J&R Express, and J&R) have been named as co-defendants with Cupola Apts, LLC in a proposed class action lawsuit filed in New York.

The suit centers around the defendants’ closing of their New York City facility that reportedly occurred between January and April 2014, during which approximately 100 employees were allegedly terminated without proper notice.
