Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Decided March 27, 2015No. 14-20253UnpublishedCited by 44 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM: *

The plaintiffs sued Oil Inspections (U.S.A.), Inc., their former employer, for alleged violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act’s (“FLSA”) overtime provisions. On cross-motions for summary judgment, the district court held that the plaintiffs did not fall within the administrative exemption to the FLSA, but that the “highly compensated employee” exemption applied to Plaintiff Vasilios Zannikos. It also held that all of the plaintiffs’ claims were subject to the FLSA’s two-year statute of limitations for non-willful violations. Both parties appealed. We AFFIRM.
