Case: Wage & Hour/Fair Labor Standards Act (M.D. Tenn.)

A Tennessee federal district court granted in part a motion for attorney fees and costs under the Fair Labor Standards Act filed by a former county employee who had settled her unpaid overtime claim against Williamson County, Tennessee, awarding $29,408.33 in attorney fees and $1,573.93 in costs after finding that while some billing entries contained errors or were unrelated to the FLSA claim, the overall hours were reasonable given counsel’s excellent result despite the claim’s relative simplicity.
