Three Wage & Hour Questions Certified To The California Supreme Court
Sullivan v. Oracle Corp., 2009 WL 367626 (9th Cir. 2009)
The Ninth Circuit has withdrawn its published opinion in this case and certified the following questions to the California Supreme Court: (1) Does the California Labor Code apply to overtime work performed in California for a California-based employer by out-of-state plaintiffs in the circumstances of this case, such that overtime pay is required for work in excess of eight hours per day or in excess of forty hours per week? (2) Does Business & Professions Code § 17200 apply to the overtime work described in question one? and (3) Does Section 17200 apply to overtime work performed outside California for a California-based employer by out-of-state plaintiffs in the circumstances of this case if the employer failed to comply with the overtime provisions of the FLSA?
