Facts

Plaintiffs Delmer Camp and Adriana Correa are, respectively, current and former non-exempt employees of defendant Home Depot U.S.A., Inc. Plaintiffs filed a class action lawsuit against defendant for wage and hour violations alleging that defendant's time rounding system was unlawful.

Contentions

PLAINTIFF'S CONTENTIONS: Plaintiff contended that, by paying non-exempt employees based on rounded time records, defendant failed to pay all minimum and overtime wages due in violation of Labor Code Sections 510, 1194, 1197 and 1198.

DEFENDANT'S CONTENTIONS: Defendant denied plaintiff's contentions. Defendant contended that plaintiff's cause of action fails because defendant's rounding practice was neutral and thus was permissible by law.

Result

The court granted summary judgment in favor of defendant.
