Gimme!

Purdham v. Fairfax County Sch. Bd., (4th Cir. Mar. 10, 2011) is an interesting FLSA case involving a public school golf coach who also was employed by the school as a safety and security assistant. The coach claimed he was entitled to overtime for his services as a golf coach. The court determines his duties as a coach were not a condition of continuation in his "day job" and accordingly he was properly deemed a volunteer coach, not an employee. Former Justice Sandra Day O'Connor participated in the unanimous decision.
