Reversing Judge Richard J. Sullivan’s 2014 decision, a panel of the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit ruled today that a contract attorney who provided document review services on a multi-district litigation for a law firm through a third party staffing firm colorably alleged an FLSA violation based on his assertion that the document review services he provided did not constitute legal work. Lola, et al. v. Skadden, Arps, et ano., 2d Cir., No. 14-3845, 07/23/2015.
