MEMORANDUM OPINION
Robert Macleroy sues the City of Childersburg, Alabama, his former
employer, alleging claims for unpaid overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act
and disability discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Childersburg has moved for summary judgment on both claims. (Doc. 26).
For the reasons explained within, the Court GRANTS Childersburg’s motion
and summarily dismisses Macleroy’s remaining claims.
FACTUAL BACKGROUND
Macleroy worked as an animal control officer for the City of Childersburg
from 1999 to 2017. As animal control officer, Macleroy worked in Childersburg’s
police department, but he was not classified as a law enforcement officer or a first
responder.
A. Facts about Macleroy’s unpaid overtime claim
As a Childersburg employee, Macleroy was required to work a five-day, 40hour workweek. Each work day consisted of nine hours minus a one-hour, unpaid
lunch break. Childersburg allowed Macleroy to take his one-hour lunch break at any
point during a two-hour window—from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
Childersburg used time cards to ensure that its employees worked these hours.
Macleroy would “clock in and out” with a time card at the start and end of each day,
and Childersburg would automatically deduct his one-hour unpaid lunch break from
his time. Childersburg employees periodically reviewed and revised their time cards,
correcting any errors. After doing so, employees submitted their reviewed and
corrected time cards to their supervisors and to Childersburg’s payroll clerk, who
would each independently double-check the employees’ time cards for accuracy.
Macleroy’s claim for unpaid overtime stems from his claim that, from 2015
to 2017 (the relevant period here), he sometimes received dispatch calls for animal
control jobs during his one-hour lunch break. Childersburg did not document animal
control dispatch calls, and Macleroy did not revise his time cards to document them.
Instead, Macleroy asserts that his supervisors should have known about the
lunchtime calls because animal control dispatch calls came over the police dispatch
radio. Macleroy admits that Childersburg authorized him to resume his lunch break
after handling a dispatch call but claims there often was no time to do so.
B. Facts about Macleroy’s Disability Claim
Macleroy’s disability discrimination claim is based upon his alleged illiteracy.
Macleroy dropped out of school in the ninth grade, where he was enrolled in special
education classes, and he claims that he never learned to read or write. While
Macleroy claims that a doctor may have given a medical reason for his illiteracy to
his parents when he was a child, he has not tried to obtain any such diagnosis as an
adult. Rather, he says that he is “stubborn” and “didn’t want to learn” to read when
he was in school. Since dropping out of school, the thought of returning has “never
crossed [Macleroy’s] mind” because he “ain’t interested” in learning.
Macleroy claims that former Childersburg employees Shane Burnett and
Misty Hepp knew that he was illiterate because he once asked Burnett to read him a
deposition and he thought Hepp knew that he had only an eighth-grade education.
Macleroy also claims that Captain Tommy Wallace knew he was illiterate.
Macleroy did not, however, affirmatively disclose his illiteracy to
Childersburg employees. On the contrary, he had his wife complete some papers,
including his employment application, without telling his colleagues or supervisors.
He asked other Childersburg employees to complete other paperwork for him, telling
them he could not because “he didn’t have his glasses on.” And Macleroy signed
forms indicating that he had read various Childersburg policies and manuals, without
admitting to his colleagues or supervisors that he had not read them.
In his Complaint, Macleroy alleges that Childersburg began “insisting” that
he write citations in 2015 and 2016, and he claims that he was terminated because
Childersburg “wanted somebody in [his position] that could really write a ticket.”
(Doc. 1, pp. 5-6; Doc. 24-1, pp. 92-93). But Macleroy was never instructed to write
a ticket, nor was he disciplined for failing to write tickets.
Richard McClelland was the Chief of Police when Macleroy stopped working
for Childersburg. Macleroy admits that Chief McClelland did not know he was
illiterate. Chief McClelland confirms that Macleroy was never responsible for
writing tickets. Nor have any of Childersburg’s subsequent animal control officers
written tickets.
C. Facts surrounding the end of Macleroy’s employment
Three incidents preceded Macleroy’s departure in April 2017. First, Macleroy
cut wires in his city vehicle without permission, damaging the vehicle. Second,
Macleroy called Captain Wallace a derogatory name during an argument. Third,
Macleroy refused to show up for work the day after the argument, and he failed to
notify either Captain Wallace or Chief McClelland of his absence—a violation of
Childersburg policy.
Because of these incidents, Captain Wallace prepared two “employee counsel
forms” and one “employee reprimand form,” and, on April 18, 2017, Chief
McClelland called Macleroy along with Captain Wallace to his office to present
Macleroy with the forms. Upon receiving the forms, Macleroy told Chief
McClelland and Captain Wallace that he planned to take two weeks of vacation and
that if things did not change after he came back he would quit.
The parties dispute what happened after that. Macleroy claims that Chief
McClelland looked at Captain Wallace and asked, “Did he resign?” In response,
Macleroy claims that Captain Wallace stated, “Yeah, that’s what it sounds like.”
Macleroy claims that Chief McClelland then looked at him and said, “Put your badge
on my desk.” Macleroy claims he was terminated, while Childersburg claims
Macleroy voluntarily resigned. The parties agree, however, that Macleroy’s alleged
illiteracy was not discussed at the meeting.
On March 14, 2018, Macleroy filed this lawsuit.
STANDARD OF REVIEW
Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56, the Court should grant summary
judgment only upon a showing that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact.
The moving party bears the burden of proof, and the Court should “view all evidence
and make all reasonable inferences in favor of the party opposing summary
judgment.” Whatley v. CNA Ins. Cos., 189 F.3d 1310, 1313 (11th Cir. 1999);
Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, 477 U.S. 242, 255 (1986).
Summary judgment is appropriate where “the pleadings, depositions, answers
to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show
that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is
entitled to judgment as a matter of law.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c). Entry of summary
judgment is appropriate “after adequate time for discovery and upon motion, against
a party who fails to make a showing sufficient to establish the existence of an
element essential to that party’s case, and on which that party will bear the burden
of proof at trial.” Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 322 (1986).
The movant bears the responsibility for showing the basis for the summary
judgment motion. Id. A factual dispute alone is not enough to defeat a properly pled
motion for summary judgment; only the existence of a genuine issue of material fact
will preclude grant of summary judgment. Anderson, 477 U.S. at 247–48 (1986). An
issue is genuine if the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict
for the nonmoving party. Mize v. Jefferson City Bd. of Educ., 93 F.3d 739, 742 (11th
Cir. 1996) (citing Hairston v. Gainesville Sun Publ’g Co., 9 F.3d 913, 918 (11th Cir.
1993)). A fact is material if it may affect the outcome of the suit under the governing
law. Allen v. Tyson Foods, Inc., 121 F.3d 642, 646 (11th Cir. 1997). The moving
party bears the initial burden of showing the Court, by reference to materials on file,
that there are no genuine issues of material fact that should be decided at trial.
Hickson Corp. v. N. Crossarm Co., Inc., 357 F.3d 1256, 1260 (11th Cir. 2004) (citing
Anderson, 477 U.S. at 248).
“When a moving party has discharged its burden, the non-moving party must
then ‘go beyond the pleadings,’ and by its own affidavits, or by ‘depositions, answers
to interrogatories, and admissions on file,’ designate specific facts showing that there
is a genuine issue for trial.” Jeffery v. Sarasota White Sox, Inc., 64 F.3d 590, 593–
94 (11th Cir. 1995) (citing Celotex, 477 U.S. at 324). If there is a conflict between
the parties’ allegations or evidence, the non-moving party’s evidence is presumed to
be true and all reasonable inferences must be drawn in the non-moving party’s favor.
Shotz v. City of Plantation, Fla., 344 F.3d 1161, 1164 (11th Cir. 2003).
ANALYSIS
Macleroy pleaded three claims in his complaint, but the parties previously
stipulated to the dismissal of Count II. (Doc. 21). That leaves Macleroy’s claims for
unpaid overtime wages under the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) (Count I) and
his claim of disability discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act
(“ADA”) (Count III). The Court addresses the claims in that order.
I.
Macleroy’s FLSA Claim for Unpaid Overtime Fails as a Matter of Law.
The FLSA requires employers to pay overtime (that is, compensation at a rate
at least 1.5 times an employee’s regular rate) for all time its employees work above
40 hours per week. 29 U.S.C. §§ 207(a)(1), (a)(2)(C); 203(g). Whether an employer
asked its employee to perform overtime work is irrelevant. 29 C.F.R. § 785.11
(“Work not requested but suffered or permitted is work time”). Rather, if an
employer “knows or has reason to believe” that its employee worked overtime, “the
additional hours must be counted” for the purpose of overtime pay. Reich v. Dep't of
Conservation and Nat. Res., 28 F.3d 1076, 1082 (11th Cir. 1994).
Macleroy alleges that Childersburg violated the FLSA by failing to pay him
for work he claims to have performed during his daily, one-hour lunch break.
Macleroy argues the lunchtime work qualifies as overtime because he performed it
on top of his regular 8-hour shift, meaning he worked more than 40 hours per week.
To recover, Macleroy must prove that: (1) he performed overtime work
without pay, and (2) Childersburg knew, or should have known, of his overtime
work. Anderson v. Mt. Clemens Pottery Co., 328 U.S. 680, 687 (1946); Reich, 28
F.3d at 1082. As a result, to survive summary judgment, Macleroy must provide
sufficient evidence to create a jury question that (a) he worked during his lunch hour
and (b) Childersburg knew or should have known that Macleroy worked during his
lunch hour, yet failed to compensate him. He has not.
A. Macleroy Fails to Provide Sufficient Evidence that He Worked Without
Proper Compensation.
Although Macleroy bears the burden of proving that he worked overtime
without compensation, “[t]he remedial nature of [the FLSA] and the great public
policy which it embodies . . . militate against making that burden an impossible
hurdle for the employee.” Anderson, 328 U.S. at 687. Thus, under the FLSA, it is
the employer’s duty to keep records of its employees’ wages, hours, and other
conditions and practices of employment. Id. If the employer’s records are inaccurate
or inadequate, the burden shifts to the employer to show the employee did not
perform overtime work, so long as the employee offers sufficient evidence to show
“the amount and extent of that work as a matter of just and reasonable inference.”
Id. at 687–88; see also Allen v. Bd. of Pub. Educ., 495 F.3d 1306, 1315–17 (11th
Cir. 2007). Thus, the Court must first determine whether there is a genuine issue of
material fact that Childersburg’s records inaccurately reflect the hours Macleroy
worked. Allen, 495 F.3d at 1316. If a genuine issue of material fact exists, the Court
must then determine if there is sufficient evidence from which a reasonable jury
could determine the amount and extent of the uncompensated work as a matter of
just and reasonable inference. Id.
1. Childersburg Accurately Recorded Macleroy’s Time.
Macleroy claims that he sometimes received dispatch calls that required him
to work between 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM—the two-hour window in which he could
take his daily lunch hour. 1 Macleroy argues that Childersburg’s records are
1
Presumably, Childersburg offered Macleroy a two-hour window in which to take his one-hour lunch to afford
Macleroy flexibility, impliedly recognizing that Macleroy may receive dispatch calls midday. In fact, Macleroy
testified that if he ever received a dispatch call in the middle of a lunch break, he was allowed to resume his lunch
break after the call was completed. (Doc. 24-1, pp. 62-64).
inaccurate because Childersburg did not keep a record of such calls and thus did not
keep a record of the times he worked during his unpaid lunch hour.
But the record shows that Childersburg used a simple method to record
Macleroy’s work time that obviated any need for it to keep a record of his individual
dispatch calls. Childersburg required Macleroy to “clock-in” with a time card at the
start of his shift and “clock-out” nine hours later, when his shift ended. Macleroy’s
one-hour, unpaid lunch break was automatically deducted, yielding eight hours of
payable time each day. Macleroy had a two-hour window to take his lunch break,
and he could review and revise his time card to correct any errors—for example, that
he worked during his one-hour lunch. After Macleroy reviewed and revised his time
card for accuracy, his supervisor and Childersburg’s payroll clerk would compile
and double-check his hours.
Macleroy reviewed his time cards throughout his employment, yet he never
sought to correct his time card to show that he worked through his lunch hour. Nor
did he make any complaints about any unpaid work.
If, as here, an employer adopts a reasonable process for an employee to report
overtime, “the employer is not liable for nonpayment if the employee fails to follow
the established process.” White v. Baptist Mem'l Health Care Corp., 699 F.3d 869,
876 (6th Cir. 2012). This “prevents the employer from knowing its obligation to
compensate the employee and thwarts the employer’s ability to comply with the
FLSA.” Id.; see also Forrester v. Roth's I.G.A. Foodliner, Inc., 646 F.2d 413, 414–
15 (9th Cir. 1981). Macleroy was in the best position to prove he worked during his
lunch break; “[t]o require . . . [an employer] to prove a negative—that an employee
was not performing ‘work’ during a time reserved for meals—would perversely
incentivize employers to keep closer tabs on employees . . . .” Hertz v. Woodbury
Cty., Iowa, 566 F.3d 775, 784 (8th Cir. 2009). So, if any inaccuracies exist in
Childersburg’s records, they result from Macleroy’s failure to correctly report his
time under Childersburg’s clear, easy to follow process.
2. Macleroy fails to provide evidence that would allow a jury to determine/
infer the amount of unpaid overtime work.
Even if Macleroy could create a jury question about the accuracy of
Childersburg’s records (he cannot), he has failed to provide sufficient evidence to
allow a jury to reasonably infer the amount and extent of his unpaid overtime work.
Macleroy never corrected his time card to show he worked through lunch, nor did
he maintain any other record of his missed lunch breaks. More importantly,
Macleroy has neither alleged nor produced any persuasive facts to support his claim
that he worked through his lunch breaks. Instead, Macleroy depends on a naked
assertion that he performed work during his lunch breaks, arguing “[h]is testimony
about the hours he worked defeats [Childersburg]’s motion.” (Doc. 28, p. 16).
Macleroy’s testimony, however, is insufficient to allow any reasonable
inference about the amount and extent of overtime work he performed. Macleroy
testified in his deposition that he had “no recollection” of how many times he worked
during a lunch break. (Doc. 24-1, pp. 128-29). When asked how often he worked
through his lunch break, Macleroy guessed:
(Doc. 24-1, pp. 225-226).
The totality of the evidence, viewed with every inference in Macleroy’s favor,
fails to create a jury question whether he performed unpaid overtime work.
B. Macleroy Fails to Provide Sufficient Evidence that Childersburg
Knew or Should Have Known of the Unpaid Work.
Even if Macleroy could prove that he performed work during his lunch breaks,
he has failed to show Childersburg had actual or constructive knowledge of such
work. Again, automatic meal break deduction systems, like the one Childersburg
used, are lawful under the FLSA. So the relevant question here is not merely whether
Childersburg knew or should have known that Macleroy was working, but that he
was working and not reporting his work time accurately. The Court concludes that
Macleroy has not shown that there is a triable issue of fact on Childersburg’s actual
or constructive knowledge of his overtime work.
1. Childersburg Lacked Actual Knowledge.
As discussed in Subsection A, when an “employee fails to notify the employer
. . . of [his] overtime work, the employer’s failure to pay for the overtime hours is
not [an FLSA] violation.” See Debose v. Broward Health, No. 08-61411, 2009 WL
4884535, at *11 (S.D. Fla. Dec. 17, 2009) (citing Newton v. City of Henderson, 47
F.3d 746 (5th Cir. 1995). Macleroy testified in his deposition that he could not recall
one specific instance when he complained to anyone with Childersburg that he had
not been compensated for overtime work he performed. (Doc. 24-1, pp. 135-36).
Macleroy further explained:
(Doc. 24-1, p. 132).
While Macleroy claims that he told several Childersburg police officers that
he worked overtime during his lunch breaks, he does not dispute that he never
informed his supervisors or any department heads. (Doc. 24-1, pp. 125-32; Doc. 24-
13; Doc. 24-14; Doc. 24-9, p. 14). Macleroy has thus provided no evidence that
Childersburg had actual knowledge of his alleged overtime work.
2. Childersburg Lacked Constructive Knowledge.
An employer has constructive knowledge of its employee’s overtime work
“when it has reason to believe that its employee [worked] beyond his shift.” Murray
v. Birmingham Bd. of Educ., 172 F. Supp. 3d 1225, 1238 (N.D. Ala. 2016). Thus,
the issue is not whether Childersburg “could have known [Macleroy] was working
overtime hours,” but “whether [it] should have known.” Newton, 47 F.3d at 748.
Macleroy argues that the fact that his supervisors could hear dispatch calls
come in during his two-hour lunch break window “serves [Childersburg] with
constructive knowledge that he was working through his lunch breaks.” (Doc. 28, p.
18). The Court is unpersuaded. Macleroy admits that Childersburg allowed him to
take his lunch at a time of his choice within a flexible window and authorized him
to resume and finish his lunch if it was interrupted. So there is no reason for anyone
who heard a dispatch call come through during that window to think (a) the call
interrupted Macleroy’s lunch, or (b) that Macleroy would not simply finish his lunch
after he handled the call, if the call in fact interrupted his lunch. That was, after all,
the point of the two-hour lunch window.
***
In summary, Macleroy had to note any unreported work on his time card, yet
he never did. Nor did Mcleroy complain to his supervisors, department heads, or
payroll that he had performed unpaid work during his lunch break. As a result,
Mcleroy cannot prove either (a) that he worked unpaid overtime hours or (b) that
Childersburg either knew or should have known that Mcleroy was working unpaid
overtime. Childersburg is thus entitled to summary judgment on Count I.
II.
Macleroy’s Disability Discrimination Claim Fails As A Matter Of Law.
The Americans With Disabilities Act (“ADA”) prohibits covered employers
from discriminating against “a qualified individual with a disability because of the
disability of such individual” in any of the “terms, conditions [or] privileges of
employment.” 42 U.S.C. § 12112(a). To establish a prima facie case of ADA
discrimination, Macleroy must prove that (1) he has a disability; (2) he is a qualified
individual; and (3) Childersburg discriminated against him because of his disability.
Morisky v. Broward Cty., 80 F.3d 445, 447 (11th Cir. 1996).
Childersburg contends that Macleroy cannot show that he has a disability or
that he was terminated “because of” his disability—particularly when Macleroy has
not shown that Childersburg knew that he had a disability. The Court agrees.
A. Macleroy Fails to Provide Sufficient Evidence that He is Disabled.
A person has a disability if he “has a physical or mental impairment that
substantially limits one or more . . . major life activities.” 42 U.S.C. § 12102(1)(A)
(2000) (amended 2008); 29 C.F.R. § 1630.2(g) (2011). The ADA defines a “mental
impairment” as “any mental or psychological disorder, such as an intellectual
disability (formerly termed “mental retardation”), organic brain syndrome,
emotional or mental illness, and specific learning disabilities.” 29 C.F.R. §
1630.2(h)(2).
Macleroy claims that he is functionally illiterate. However, “while illiteracy
is a serious problem, it does not always follow that someone who is illiterate is
necessarily suffering from a physical or mental impairment.” Morisky, 80 F.3d at
448. Macleroy’s alleged illiteracy is not a disability (i.e., a mental impairment) in
itself. Rather, it may result from a disability. See Lancaster v. City of Mobile,
Alabama, No. 94-1016-BH-C, 1996 WL 741371, at *3 (S.D. Ala. Aug. 14, 1996),
aff’d sub nom. Lancaster v. City of Mobile, Ala., 110 F.3d 798 (11th Cir. 1997).
But Macleroy does not claim to suffer from a diagnosable condition such as a
learning disorder. On the contrary, Macleroy admits that his alleged inability to read
or write is due simply to his lack of education. (Doc. 24-1, pp. 13, 15). Under the
ADA, however, “impairments do not include ‘environmental, cultural or economic
disadvantages such as poverty, lack of education, or a prison record.’” Shehab v.
Chas. H. Sells, Inc., 2004 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 21808 (S.D. New York 2004) (quoting
Sutton v. United Air Lines, Inc., 130 F.3d 893, 899 (10th Cir. 1997)) (citing 29 C.F.R.
Part 1630, App. § 1630.2(h)), aff’d, 527 U.S. 471 (1999).
Macleroy presents no evidence to support a claim of mental impairment or
disability as required by the ADA. As a result, Macleroy’s disability discrimination
claim is due to be dismissed.
B. Macleroy Fails to Provide Sufficient Evidence that Childersburg
Knew of his Alleged Disability.
Even if Macleroy provided sufficient evidence that he is disabled, he failed to
provide sufficient evidence that Childersburg knew of his disability, and by
extension, that Childersburg terminated him “because of” that disability.
To establish a prima facie case under the ADA, Macleroy “must establish that
the decisionmaker actually knew of his . . . disability.” Cordoba v. Dillard’s, Inc.,
419 F.3d 1169, 1185-86 (11th Cir. 2005) (“an employee cannot be fired ‘because of’
a disability unless the decisionmaker has actual knowledge of the disability”). Yet
Macleroy does not dispute that that Chief McClelland—the decisionmaker over
Macleroy’s employment—knew nothing about Macleroy’s alleged illiteracy or any
disability causing said illiteracy. (Doc. 24-8, p. 38, 47; Doc.24-1, p. 87). Instead,
Macleroy relies on his naked assertion that a handful of Childersburg employees
(Shane Burnett, Misty Hepp, and Captain Wallace) knew he was illiterate to support
his claim that Childersburg knew he was disabled. Macleroy alleges that Burnett and
Hepp knew he was illiterate because he once asked Burnett to read a deposition to
him and Hepp knew that he had only an eighth-grade education. (Doc. 24-1, pp. 6667).
But Macleroy does not point to a requirement that an employer/supervisor ask
other persons whether they know or believe that an employee is disabled. Nor does
he cite any authority for the proposition that an employer has the duty to divine an
employee’s disability based on circumstantial evidence.
This is likely because the Eleventh Circuit has always held to the contrary.
For instance, in Morisky, the plaintiff did not tell her supervisors about her “specific
disability.” 80 F.3d at 448. Instead, she tried to rely on how she had told her
supervisors she could not read and that she had taken special education courses in
the past, arguing that this information gave her employer sufficient notice that she
had cerebral palsy. Id. The Eleventh Circuit rejected this argument, stating, “Vague
or conclusory statements revealing an unspecified incapacity are not sufficient to put
an employer on notice of its obligations under the ADA.” Id.
Morisky clarifies that an employee must provide notice to his employer about
his specific disability before the ADA triggers an obligation to accommodate him or
refrain from firing him because of the disability. Importantly:
A contrary rule would require employers to don white coats and
diagnose (correctly, no less) employees having any potentially healthrelated difficulties at work, and then proactively accommodate them on
pain of liability under the ADA. Most employers would lack the
capacity to make the necessary medical findings even if they could
constantly monitor their employees’ health. And it would make little
sense to put the burden on the party with relatively less knowledge
about the possible disability (the employer with some inkling that the
employee has a health problem) instead of on the party with relatively
more knowledge about it (the employee who is actually experiencing
the symptoms, knows his medical history, and has firsthand knowledge
about how it affects his job performance).
Howard v. Steris Corp., 886 F. Supp. 2d 1279, 1292–93 (M.D. Ala. 2012), aff'd, 550
F. App’x 748 (11th Cir. 2013). The Court therefore finds that Macleroy cannot
impute knowledge of his alleged disability on Childersburg. And if Childersburg did
not know about Macleroy’s disability, Childersburg could not have fired Macleroy
“because of” that disability.
***
Macleroy fails to provide sufficient evidence to create a jury question on (a)
whether Mcleroy is disabled and, if so, (b) whether Childersburg terminated him
because of that disability. As a result, Macleroy cannot make out a prima facie case
under the ADA, and Childersburg is entitled to summary judgment on Count III.
CONCLUSION
For these reasons, the Court hereby GRANTS Childersburg’s motion for
summary judgment on Macleroy’s FLSA claim for unpaid overtime (Count I) and
his ADA claim for disability discrimination (Count III). The Court will issue a
separate order carrying out these findings.
DONE and ORDERED this 9th day of April, 2020.
