Midland Jury Rejects FLSA Overtime Claim Against Oilfield Services Co.

Claims brought by former employees of an oilfield services company who alleged they were wrongly denied overtime pay totaling as much as $2.1 million were recently rejected by a federal jury in Midland that found Flowco Production Solutions had not violated the Fair Labor Standards Act.

The jury began hearing testimony in U.S. District Judge David Counts’ courtroom March 6, and both sides rested the following day. After about 90 minutes of deliberation, the jury returned its verdict in favor of Flowco March 8, according to court documents.
