Rivera v. Ndola Pharmacy Corp.

How courts have described this case

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

• holding connection between plaintiffs state law sexual harassment and federal overtime claims too tenuous when based solely on employment relationship
• applying lesser standard where the time sheets contained only the employee’s name and amount paid that week
• finding supplemental jurisdiction lacking when “the only factual link . . . is that the underlying events occurred during the course of plaintiff’s employment by [defendant]”
• finding supplemental jurisdiction proper over some state law claims but not others
• finding sufficient evidence where, in the absence of employer records, the plaintiff testified to her wages, her normal hours, and the number of hours that she worked beyond the normal schedule during the period relevant to the case
• “it is well established that the employee may testify [regarding estimate of overtime hours worked] from his or her present memory and recollection alone” (listing cases)
