[00:00:00]People who work for Spirit Airlines are now suing for back pay and benefits.

[00:00:03]They say they were fired illegally without proper notice. The airline suddenly shut down 2 weeks ago and workers claim Spirit misled them by saying it planned to continue operations despite media reports the airline was about to shut down. The goal is to make this a class action lawsuit to represent the 17,000 people who lost their jobs.

[00:00:24]Spirit Airlines says it has no comment on the lawsuit.
