August 3, 2011

New Jersey employment lawyers for Burlington Coat Factory assistant store managers allege in a federal lawsuit that the company misclassifies them as exempt from overtime and fails to pay them in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act. The suit, Goodman v. Burlington Coat Factory Warehouse Corp., 11-cv-04395, filed July 29, seeks to recover on behalf of all current and former assistant managers nationwide, and similarly situated, current and former employees with different titles. The plaintiffs claim they don't make management-level decisions, such as hiring and firing employees, and their duties are similar to those performed by nonexempt employees who are entitled to overtime.
