Defendants.
Katharine S. Hayden, U.S.D.J.
This matter comes before the Court upon plaintiff Daniel Gutierrez’s motion for entry of
default judgment [D.E. 12] against defendants LCC Landscapes and Luciano Caggiano, Jr.
(“Defendants”); and
Gutierrez having commenced this action against Defendants for their alleged violation of
the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. § 201 and the New Jersey State Wage and Hour Law,
N.J.S.A. 34:11-561; and
The Court, having reviewed Gutierrez’s submissions on the motion, finding, in exercise
of its discretion, that Gutierrez’s proof of damages [D.E. 12-1, 12-2, and 12-3] is inadequate to
support its request for default judgment;
IT IS, on this 30th day of December 2014,
ORDERED that the motion for entry of default judgment [D.E. 12] is DENIED.
Plaintiff may refile his motion on or before January 23, 2015, returnable February 17, 2015,
properly supported with full explanation of damage demands.
