FLSA - Waiver and Release

Second Circuit to Decide Whether Court Approval of FLSA Settlements Applies to Accepted Offers of Judgment

Posted: October 25, 2017 | Jackson Lewis Category: FLSA - Waiver and Release

Seeking to resolve a split among the district courts in the Second Circuit, the Court of Appeals has accepted an interlocutory appeal to decide whether, in resolving cases involving FLSA claims, offers of judgment under Rule 68 require DOL or judicial scrutiny and approval. Yu v. Hasaki Restaurant, Inc., 2017 U.S. App. LEXIS 20698 (2nd Cir. Oct. 23, 2017).

Second Circuit Affirms “Supervision” Doctrine Vis a Vis FLSA Settlements

Posted: August 12, 2015 | Jackson Lewis Category: FLSA - Waiver and Release

Bringing some degree of clarity to the murky question of whether parties can dismiss a pending FLSA lawsuit on their own volition, the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit has ruled that any dismissal with prejudice requires “the approval of the district court or the DOL to take effect.” Cheeks v. Freeport Pancake House, 2015 U.S. App. LEXIS 13815 (2d Cir. Aug. 7, 2015).
