United States Supreme Court

In an action by pharmaceutical sales representatives alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) for failure to pay overtime wages, 29 U.S.C. section 207(a), the Ninth Circuit's decision denying plaintiffs' motion to alter or amend the judgment and affirming summary judgment to employer, is affirmed where the sales reps qualify as outside salesmen under the most reasonable interpretation of the Department of Labor's regulations, and are therefore exempt from the overtime wage requirement.
