Nov. 6, 2017

"An employer failed to refute a dispatcher's claims that she was denied overtime pay, discouraged from taking leave to undergo eye surgery, and fired in retaliation for asserting her FMLA rights. Granting the [employee's] motion for summary judgment on her FLSA and FMLA claims, a federal court in Florida awarded her $70,222 in damages ... [including] two-years lost wages of $32,561.75 plus liquidated damages in the same amount." [Affonso v. Southeastern Florida Transportation Group, LLC, No. 14-81309 (S.D. Fla. Oct. 6, 2017)]
