United States Ninth Circuit

In an appeal from a judgment of the district court granting defendant's motion for summary judgment in an FLSA action, 29 U.S.C. section 201, et seq., alleging that defendant-state agency failed to pay overtime compensation to certain social workers, judgment is reversed where defendant did not met its burden of showing that its social worker positions meet the regulatory requirement to enjoy the FLSA's "learned professional" exemption.
