("Ocean State"), as an Assistant Manager ("ASM") in Connecticut at any time between December 4, 2007 and the date of final judgment in this matter; and the second class consisting of all persons who have worked for the defendant as an ASM in Massachusetts at any time between August 31, 2008 and the date of final judgment in this matter. The plaintiffs claim that the defendant misclassified them as exempt from overtime under Connecticut and Massachusetts state labor laws requiring employers to pay all employees one and one-half times their regular rate of pay for time worked in excess of 40 hours during any workweek unless the employer can demonstrate that the 1 employee is exempt. The defendant contends that the plaintiffs cannot meet the requirements of Fed. R. Civ. P. 23 and therefore the proposed classes cannot be certified. The plaintiffs' motion is being granted as to the Connecticut class of plaintiffs only. On May 17, 2010, the court granted the plaintiffs' Motion to Proceed as a Collective Action and to Authorize Notice to Individuals. Twenty-five individuals have filed notices with the court consenting to join the collective action.
