A Virginia-based medical staffing company will not be kept in civil contempt for stopping working to abide by a court order due to the fact that the company supplied a good-faith defense for its postponed compliance with paying overtimes under the Fair Labor Standards Act, a federal judge held.
U.S. District Judge Raymond A. Jackson of the Eastern District of Virginia submitted a memorandum viewpoint and order Nov. 29, dismissing an order to justify versus Medical Staffing of America, operating as Steadfast Medical Staffing, to sanction the company for breaching a January 2022 court order.
