- in a collective action, the plaintiff, whose individual claim was dismissed at summary judgment, could not show that she was similarly situated to other potential § 216(b
- “It may be admitted that the terminology shocks the aesthetic sense and the succession of adjectives before the noun shows the poverty of imagination in choice of terms characteristic of the legal profession.”
