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

A security/maintenance employee for a nonprofit youth tennis and education program in New York will get a trial on his claim that the program violated the Fair Labor Standards Act and analogous state law by failing to pay him overtime. The program’s own records appear to show that he didn’t receive overtime compensation for all two-week pay periods in which he worked more than eighty hours and that there were multiple days on which he worked more hours than the nine-hour shift for which he may have been scheduled, the court said. The case is Cunningham v. N.Y. Junior Tennis League, Inc., 2020 BL 70882, S.D.N.Y., 18-CV-1743 (JMF), 2/26/20
