1Opinion of the Court

BENTON, Circuit Judge.

Barbeque Ventures, LLC, Barbeque Ventures of Nebraska, LLC, and Old Market Ventures, LLC (“the employers”) appeal from a summary judgment for the Secretary of Labor pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. §§ 207, 215(a)(2). The district court 1 ordered the employers to pay overtime compensation, liquidated damages and post-judgment interest, while denying injunctive relief. The sole issue is whether the district court properly granted liquidated damages. Jurisdiction being proper under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, this court affirms.
