Case Details
U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously in EMD Sales Inc. v. Carrera that disputes over FLSA overtime exemptions should use the 'preponderance of the evidence' standard, rejecting a heightened evidentiary standard previously applied by the Fourth Circuit. This ruling clarifies the legal landscape for employers and employees regarding labor laws.
Additional Notes
Stein Sperling represented EMD Sales, Inc. and successfully argued for a lower evidentiary standard in FLSA overtime exemption cases.
