On March 27, 2014, the Sixth Circuit issued its opinion ordering the case to proceed in individual arbitration. This was a reversal of the initial lower court decision allowing us to remain in federal court. The Sixth Circuit decision only affects the venue where the case will be heard, and does not affect the underlying merits of the claims for overtime compensation. We filed our first wave of arbitration demands on May 2, 2014, and plan to continue filing arbitrations for our clients in the coming weeks. We will continue to post periodic updates as the case progresses. In the meantime, please contact our case clerk, Matt Yost, with questions or contact information changes. He can be reached by email at myost@nka.com or by phone at (877) 344-4628.
