Department of Labor appeals overtime rule injunction

On Dec. 1 the U.S. Department of Justice appealed a preliminary injunction granted by U.S. District Court Judge Amos Mazzant against the U.S. Department of Labor overtime rule. The appeal was filed in the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit on behalf of the DOL. Mazzant granted the preliminary injunction Nov. 22 against the federal rule that would update the overtime threshold across the U.S., extending overtime protection to more than 4 million salaried workers nationwide.
