"There is something really wrong in Durham and it has NOTHING to do with this case. The people cited above are beyond redemption."

It's not limited to Durham, it goes all the way to the Governor's Office and State Government in Raleigh.

I did note the stark contrast of the Govenor of Colorado wondering in public what the DA of Boulder was doing compared to the silence out of Raleigh. And Nifong is the responsibility, the fault of Raleigh, while the Boulder DA is the responsibility of the people of Boulder. So Raleigh should be more willing to bear their responsibility and speak out.

GRIFFIN v WAKE COUNTY
PUBLISHED

FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

............MARK D. GOTTLIEB; ...[other names deleted for space]

v.

WAKE COUNTY, Defendant-Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Terrence W. Boyle, Chief District Judge. (CA-96-281-5-BO)

Argued: March 6, 1998

Decided: April 27, 1998

Before WILKINSON, Chief Judge, MICHAEL, Circuit Judge, and CLARKE, Senior United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Virginia, sitting by designation.

OPINION

WILKINSON, Chief Judge:

A class of emergency medical technicians (EMTs) employed by Wake County, North Carolina, allege that the County erroneously paid them a half-time overtime premium according to the "fluctuating workweek" pay plan rather than the standard time-and-a-half over- time compensation under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. § 207(a)(1). Finding no violation of the FLSA, we affirm the judgment of the district court dismissing the suit.

(snip)

The EMTs' original complaint was properly dismissed as legally insufficient. The EMTs' amended complaint fails to cure this defi- ciency, so the district court properly denied leave to amend. We there- fore affirm the judgment of the district court.

AFFIRMED

 


It was a suit regarding the fluctuating work week and overtime pay. pay...  Gottlieb and crew lost.
