The court, which has appellate jurisdiction over Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina and West Virginia, affirmed a district court's dismissal of several state law claims and remanded the remaining state law claims to the lower court with instructions to dismiss them without prejudice, to give the plaintiffs an opportunity to pursue claims under the FLSA.
