   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  13-2214
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
[PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Gruender and Bright, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Fair Labor Standards Act. The district court did not err in determining that two of the three plaintiffs were not eligible for the executive exemption from the FLSA as the defendant failed to present any evidence that would allow a jury to determine, without conjecture, that the two employees had the ability to hire and fire other employees or that their hiring recommendations were given particular weight as that phrase is defined by Department of Labor standards; defendant did provide sufficient evidence to show plaintiff Wotman did have this ability and was covered by the executive exemption to FLSA; case remanded for recalculation of attorneys' fees
