Description
A trade council can bring an action in superior court on behalf of workers not fully compensated for their work, seeking to foreclose on the employers bond and retainage to enforce the prevailing wage statute. But where the organization brings the action in its own name and not as a representative of the affected workers, based only on its status as an "interested party," it lacks standing to invoke the jurisdiction of the court without first exhausting its statutory administrative remedies. Because the Ironworkers District Council of the Pacific Northwest did just that, we affirm the trial courts order dismissing its suit.
