New Jersey
Labor: Fair Standards
Class Action
Noel L. Hillman
A home health care provider will pay $700,000 to settle a group of client service managers' minimum wage and overtime lawsuit, telling a New Jersey federal court that the agreement prevents further prolonging the six-year-old litigation.
A home health care provider can't challenge a New Jersey federal judge's ruling that it can't escape a minimum wage and overtime suit, saying that an interlocutory appeal would not speed up litigation and doesn't present a conflict to sort out.
A New Jersey federal judge refused to toss a wage and overtime collective action against Bayada Home Health Care Inc. based on the evidence presented at trial, denying the health care company's arguments that the testifying plaintiffs failed to represent opt-in members and that the fluctuating workweek method of calculating damages does not apply.
A New Jersey federal judge has granted final certification to a pair of classes suing Bayada Home Health Care over claims the business violated the Fair Labor Standards Act by misclassifying some employees as overtime exempt instead of nonexempt.
