On October 18, 2006, several then and former employees of the defendant's Albertville, Alabama facility filed a lawsuit against the defendant under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. §§ 201 et seq. in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama, Middle Division. The plaintiffs, represented by private counsel, brought this class action seeking damages and injunctive relief for violations of the FLSA. Specifically, plaintiffs claim the company failed to account for all compensable time of its employees, including time spent clearing security and time walking to and from security to donning and doffing areas.
On June 7, 2007, the District Court (Judge R. David Proctor) ordered the case stayed because the court had received Defendant's Notice of Motion to Transfer and Consolidate for Pretrial Proceedings to the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation.
On November 5, 2007, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation ordered that the case be transferred to the Southern District of Mississippi. The following development is included in our database as Belue v. Wayne Farms, LLC.
