No Retaliation Here

This case was filed as a collective action under the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq. and also asserted individual claims for retaliation. It’s particularly useful because it addresses a motion for partial summary judgment as  to the individual retaliation claim, and takes the form of a report & recommendation by the magistrate judge, which was affirmed by the district judge.  I have attached both orders to the analysis below.
