United States Ninth Circuit
Pitts v. Terrible Herbst, Inc., 10-15965
In an dispute arising from a class-action for violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. Section 216(b), and state labor laws, judgment of the district court denying plaintiff class certification is reversed as an abuse of discretion where a rejected Rule 68 offer of judgment for the full amount of a putative class representative’s individual claim does not moot a class action complaint where the offer precedes the filing of a motion for class certification.
