MEMORANDUM OPINION
ELLIS, District Judge.
In this dispute between an employer and employee over wages and benefits, the employee has alleged four causes of action: (i) breach of contract, (ii) quantum meruit, (iii) violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”), 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq., and (iv) violation of the Virginia Wage Payment Act, Va.Code § 40.1-29. Defendant’s threshold dismissal motion targets the last of these causes of action and presents the question, not yet addressed by the Supreme Court of Virginia, whether the Wage Payment Act creates a private cause of action.
