Davila v. Menendez, et al., No. 12-11049 (11th Cir. 2013)
Annotate this CasePlaintiff claimed that defendants failed to pay her the minimum wage under federal and state law while she worked as a nanny for them. On appeal, plaintiff challenged the district court's judgment concluding that defendants did not willfully violate federal minimum wage laws, 28 U.S.C. 206(a), and the minimum wage laws of Florida, Fla. Const. Art. 10, section 24(e), and that plaintiff was not entitled to liquidated damages under the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. 216. The court vacated and remanded, concluding that plaintiff introduced sufficient evidence for a reasonable jury to find that defendants willfully violated the minimum wage laws and the district court could not rule on plaintiff's motion for liquidated damages before the jury decided whether defendants willfully violated the minimum wage laws.
