From in.news.yahoo.com:

In his complaint filed before an Alabama Court early this week, one Jack Palmer said he worked for Infosys “as a Principal – Enterprise Solutions” since August 2008.

In his-13 page complaint, he alleged that Infosys sent lower level and unskilled foreigners to the US to work in full-time positions at its customer sites in direct violation of immigration laws.

He claimed that Infosys was paying these employees in India for full-time work in the United States without withholding federal or state income taxes, and overbilled customers for the labor costs of these employees.

After the federal government restricted the H-1B program, in 2009, Palmer claimed, he was sent to Bangalore, for planning meetings.

Infosys spokesperson said over phone from Bangalore, “We are unable to comment as the matter is under litigation.”
