Case: Wage & Hour/Conditional Certification (S.D.N.Y.)

A federal district court granted preliminary approval of a settlement agreement between NYPD officers and Kering Americas, Inc. for claims under the Fair Labor Standards Act and New York State and City law, finding the agreement that provides class members with 65% of potential wage damages to be fair, reasonable, and adequate, while also conditionally certifying a settlement class and finally certifying a FLSA collective action, after determining the settlement satisfied federal law requirements and resulted from arm’s-length negotiations between experienced counsel.
