Case No. 2:18-cv-00736-GMN-GWF
ORDER

12
13

At intake, this case was assigned to the court’s Early Neutral Evaluation Program for

14

employment-discrimination cases. (See Notice (ECF No. 4).) Local Rule 16-6(a) defines

15

employment-discrimination cases as cases filed under the following statutes:

16

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e, et seq.;
Title I of the Americans With Disabilities Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 12101, et
seq.; prohibition of employment discrimination under 42 U.S.C. § 1981; Age
Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. § 626, et seq.; Equal Pay Act, 29
U.S.C. § 206; Genetic Information NonDiscrimination Act of 2008, 42 U.S.C. §
2000ff, et seq.; Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 U.S.C. § 794; and under
42 U.S.C. § 1983, if the complaint alleges discrimination in employment on the
basis of race, color, gender, national origin, or religion.

Here, Plaintiff alleges claims for violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) (claim

22

one), retaliation under the FLSA (claim two), and violation of Nevada overtime wage laws (claims

23

three and four). (See Compl. (ECF No. 1-3).) Given that none of these claims are included in the

24

definition of an employment-discrimination action under Local Rule 16-6(a), the court will not

25

hold an early neutral evaluation conference in this case.

26

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the court will not conduct an early neutral evaluation

27

in this case.
