How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding an alleged employer must exercise “significant control” to be considered a joint employer under the FLSA
  • explaining that “[t]he Supreme Court has even gone so far as to acknowledge that the FLSA’s definition of employer is the broadest definition”
  • noting that it is relevant if an alleged employer has “authority to promulgate work rules and assignments [] and set conditions of employment” and exercises “day-to-day supervision, including employee discipline”
  • noting that these factors are not exhaustive and should not be “blindly applied”
  • explaining that the court’s determination that parent corporation was not employer of subsidiaries’ assistant managers was “bolstered by the readily apparent fact that [parent corporation] exercised no control, let alone significant control, over the assistant managers”
  • accepting the argument that additional factors such as the corporate structure and nature of the business in which the parties were engaged should be considered
