DEFENDANTS

ORDER Before the Court is Plaintiffs' Unopposed Motion to Dismiss Separate Defendants from Certain Causes of Action. (Doc. 148). Plaintiffs ask the Court to dismiss certain causes of action against Separate Defendants.1 Upon consideration, the Court finds that Plaintiffs' Unopposed Motion to Dismiss Separate Defendants from Certain Causes of Action should be and hereby is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART. Any claims against Separate Defendants that are based upon alleged violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq., are DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.2 It appears from Plaintiffs' motion that Plaintiffs' intent is to also dismiss certain other causes of action against Separate Defendants. However, the Court is unclear as to which causes of action In this Order, "Separate Defendants" refers to Pittman Properties Limited Partnership #1, D&M Pittman, Inc., and Mickey H. Pittman Ketchum. These claims are found in paragraph VII of Plaintiffs' Second Amended Complaint (Doc. 132).

IT IS SO ORDERED, this 6th day of July, 2010. /s/ Harry F. Barnes Hon. Harry F. Barnes United States District Judge
