CompFox AI Summary
This action was initiated by the Secretary of Labor to enjoin the defendant from allegedly violating the overtime and record-keeping provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and to restrain the withholding of overtime wages. The defendant, owner and operator of apartment complexes, moved for summary judgment, questioning the constitutionality of the FLSA's pertinent provisions under the Commerce Clause, specifically the 1974 amendments adding 'or materials' to § 203(s). The Court determined that the defendant's business constituted an 'enterprise' under the Act due to employees handling interstate materials and rejected the constitutional challenge, affirming Congress's power to regulate intrastate activities with a substantial aggregate effect on interstate commerce. Consequently, the Court granted the plaintiff's cross-motion for partial summary judgment, upholding the applicability and constitutionality of the FLSA to the defendant's business.
