Case Summary

In 1982, the NAACP filed a class action on behalf of farmworkers (apple pickers) in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, challenging the Department of Labor's interpretation of its temporary foreign worker program regulations as applied to certain West Virginia apple growers. The complaint alleged that the Department misinterpreted the regulations in a way that allowed grower productivity expectations for apple pickers to increase, thereby resulting in less pay for workers.

In 1982, the NAACP filed a class action on behalf of farmworkers (apple pickers) in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, challenging the Department of Labor's interpretation of its temporary foreign worker program regulations as applied to certain West Virginia apple growers. The complaint alleged that the Department misinterpreted the regulations in a way that allowed grower productivity expectations for apple pickers to increase, thereby resulting in less pay for workers. The District Court agreed and entered a judgment in favor of the plaintiffs, directing the Department to properly enforce its piece rate regulations to assure that apple-pickers were paid correctly. NAACP, Jefferson County Branch v. Donovan, 558 F.Supp. 218 (D.D.C.1982). The District Court later extended its ruling to a nationwide class. NAACP, Jefferson County Branch v. Donovan, 566 F.Supp. 1202, 1206 (D.D.C.1983).

In 1983, the Department issued an amended piece rate regulation, which became the subject of more litigation. NAACP, Jefferson County Branch v. Donovan, 566 F.Supp. 1202 (D.D.C. 1983) (upholding the amended regulation); reversed by N.A.A.C.P., Jefferson County Branch v. Donovan, 737 F.2d 67 (D.C.Cir. 1984); on remand, NAACP, Jefferson County Branch v. Donovan, 1984 WL 3184 (D.D.C. Aug 15, 1984) (again upholding the amended regulation); reversed by N.A.A.C.P., Jefferson County Branch v. Donovan, 765 F.2d 1178 (D.C.Cir.1985).

In 1986, some of the plaintiffs who worked as both apple-pickers and sugar-cane cutters filed a motion for further relief alleging that the Department of Labor was not enforcing its piece-rate regulations in the sugar cane industry. That part of the case dragged on for years, resulting in a number of Court orders. See NAACP, Jefferson County Branch v. Brock, 619 F.Supp. 846 (D.D.C. 1985); NAACP, Jefferson County Branch v. McLaughlin, 703 F.Supp. 1014 (D.D.C. 1989); N.A.A.C.P., Jefferson County Branch v. U.S. Secretary of Labor, 846 F.Supp. 91 (D.D.C. 1994); NAACP, Jefferson County Branch v. U.S. Secretary of Labor, 865 F.Supp. 903 (D.D.C. 1994); NAACP v. Martin, 1995 WL 870020 (D.D.C. Feb 06, 1995). The case was eventually ordered to be dismissed in 1996 by the Court of Appeals, without any relief being granted to the sugar cane cutters. N.A.A.C.P., Jefferson County Branch v. U.S. Sugar Corp., 84 F.3d 1432 (D.C.Cir. 1996).
