W. Willard Wirtz, Secretary of Labor, United States Department of Labor v. Hines Realty Company and Jack Hines
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
W. Willard Wirtz, Secretary of Labor, United States Department of Labor v. Hines Realty Company and Jack Hines, 361 F.2d 321 (5th Cir. 1966)
1966 U.S. App. LEXIS 6128; 54 Lab. Cas. (CCH) 31,813
W. Willard Wirtz, Secretary of Labor, United States Department of Labor v. Hines Realty Company and Jack Hines
Opinion
This appeal by the Secretary is from an order of the District Court granting summary judgment to appellees. The Secretary, proceeding under § 17 of the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C.A. § 217, was seeking, inter alia, to restrain appellees from withholding back wages alleged to be due under the Act. The judgment of the District Court was rendered prior to this court’s opinion in Burk Builders, Inc. v. Wirtz, 5 Cir., 1966, 355 F.2d 451. The two are patently in conflict and Burk Builders is, of course, controlling.
Accordingly, we reverse and remand for further proceedings not inconsistent herewith.
