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.
