Overtime Rule Vacated!

November 15, 2024

Thanks to ANCOR for this update:

“The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas issued a final judgment in the Overtime Rule litigation, finding the Department of Labor exceeded its authority under the Fair Labor Standards Act and striking down the entirety of the final Overtime Rule. Memorandum Opinion and Order attached. 

The Court VACATES and SETS ASIDE, in its entirety, the Department of Labor’s Final Rule “Defining and Delimiting the Exemptions for Executive Administrative, Professional, Outside Sales and Computer Employees, 89 Fed. Reg. 32842 (Apr. 26.2024) (codified at 29 C.F.R. §§ 541.0-541.710). 

The judgment is newly issued today, so we’re likely to see the Department of Labor’s website updated shortly to reflect that the rule is no longer in effect. “
