Vargas vs FedEx Ground Division | Ground | Class Action | Wage Hour | State Litigation | Illinois | Massachusetts | Michigan | Minnesota | Montana | New Jersey | |

This case was filed in U.S. District Court for Massachusetts but since consolidated into the FedEx Ground multi-district litigation now before the U.S. District Court for Northern Indiana. Since August 2005, drivers of non-commercial vehicles - vehicles of gross vehicle weight less than 10,000 lbs - have been eligible for overtime under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Prior to August 2005, drivers of non-commercial vehicles were exempted from the FLSA and state wage laws and not eligible for state overtime wages. The claims allege that drivers are misclassified as ‘contractors’ but controlled like employees and thus are owed overtime wages under the state laws.
