How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that employer knew or should have known of under-reported time when supervisor explicitly instructed employee to work off-the-clock
  • noting that “nominally” requiring accurate reporting is insufficient to avoid FLSA liability where “supervisors encouraged employees to underreport”
  • rejecting defendant’s FLSA argument, in part, because “[i]n the context of such a well-worn federal statute, the dearth of precedent supporting [its] novel argument [was] persuasive, if not conclusive, evidence that [the argument was] misguided”
  • “Knowledge [of unpaid overtime] may be imputed to the employer when its supervisors or management encourage artificially low reporting.”
  • “Knowledge may be imputed to the employer when its supervisors or management ‘encourage artificially low reporting.’”
  • “Knowledge may be imputed to the employer when its supervisors or management ‘encourage [ ] artificially low reporting.’”
