Naylor v. Securiguard, Inc., No. 14-60637 (5th Cir. 2015)
Annotate this CaseThis case stemmed from Securiguard's treatment of certain break periods for guards stationed at a Navy base. The guards filed suit under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. 201 et seq., seeking damages for back pay. The district court granted summary judgment for Securiguard. The court affirmed the district court's grant of summary judgment on the guards’ claims based on the main gate, the truck gate, and the 6:00 a.m. through midnight shifts at the flightline gate when the mandatory commute time was de minimis. However, because a jury could find that the remaining meal breaks did not allow enough time for the employees to use the break for their own purposes to qualify as noncompensable, the court reversed and remanded.
