FINAL JUDGMENT: The Court finds that the settlement meets the requirements of Fed. R. Civ. P. 23, in that the settlement is fair, adequate, and reasonable, and not a product of collusion. The Court also finds that the settlement should be approved under the FLSA, as the settlement reflects a fair and reasonable compromise of disputed issues that were reached as a result of contested litigation. Additionally, the Court finds that the requested attorneys' fees, expenses, service payments, and discovery participant service payments are reasonable and warranted. Accordingly, Plaintiffs' motion for final settlement approval is GRANTED, Plaintiffs' motion for attorneys' fees and expenses, service payments and discovery participant service payments is GRANTED, and it is hereby ORDERED: The following amounts are approved for distribution in the timeframe and manner specified by the parties' settlement agreement: Net Settlement Fund of $6,874,685.07, to be allocated among all Non-Verification Class Members who have not been excluded from this settlement and to all Verification Class Members whose Verification Forms the parties have agreed to honor; Class Representative Service Payments of $15,000 each to Class Representatives Sabrina Hart and Reka Furedi; Discovery Participant Service Payments of $2,000 each to the 25 FLSA Collective Members who were deposed in this matter; $5,500,000 to Class Counsel, the law firm of Nichols Kaster, PLLP.

Filing 762
ORDER: A fairness hearing is scheduled in this case for September 18, 2015, at 9:30 a.m., regarding plaintiffs' motions to approve the proposed class settlement, Dkt. 753, and to award attorney's fees and costs, Dkt. 743. The Court appreciates counsels' thoughtful and helpful submissions on these motions. To assist the Court in its review, the Court asks counsel to be prepared, at the hearing, to address, inter alia, the following: Have any Verification Class Members who had not submitted Verification Forms as of August 1, 2015, subsequently done so, or otherwise conveyed to counsel an interest in participating in the settlement? Are there any updates to be made to the calculations as to class members' response rates and/or the sums to be disbursed to the class following settlement approval? What reason or reasons are there for the non-participation in the settlement of more than 40% of the Verification Class, each of whose members stands to receive $10,000 or more from the settlement if they participate? What has been the participation rate of class members in prior settlements of cases brought by exotic dancers under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) or similar state statutes?

ORDER: Trial in this case is scheduled for April27, 2015; various pretrial deadlines are approaching. See Dkt 621. This order resolves two issues that plaintiffs raised in a January 9, 2015 letter. They seek an order that (1) provides for supplemental class notice, and (2) gives the parties an opportunity, before the March 13, 2015 pretrial conference, to respond in writing to each other's proposed voir dire and jury instructions. Dkt 633. By letter dated January 13, 2015, defendants submitted a letter opposing both requests. Dkt 634. The Court grants both of plaintiffs' requests, and as further set forth herein. As to the timing of the proposed exchange, the Court agrees with defendants that plaintiffs' proposal that such a pre-submission exchange between the parties be made on January 23, 2015 is unrealistic. It would move the deadline for creation of these materials forward too precipitously. However, it is realistic to expect the parties to share these materials approximately one week before the Friday, February 6, 2015 due date. Accordingly, the Court directs that each party provide to the other a full set of proposed voir dire and requests to charge by Thursday, January 29, 2015. The Court further directs that the parties confer by telephone on or before the close of business on Tuesday, February 3, 2015, to discuss the voir dire and requests to charge and to narrow, to the extent possible, any areas of disagreement. To the extent the parties take issue with each other's submissions, they are authorized to submit a letter memorandum on February 6, 2015, along with their own submissions, explaining the bases for objecting to their adversary's submission(s). (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 1/14/2015) (djc) Modified on 1/14/2015 (djc).

OPINION & ORDER #105083 re: #616 MOTION for Leave to Appeal for Certification of Questions for Interlocutory Appeal Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1292(B) filed by Rick's Cabaret International Inc., Peregrine Enterprises, Inc., RCI Entertainment (New York) Inc. For the foregoing reasons, the Court holds that (1) performance fees cannot be used to offset defendants' liability under NYLL 193(3)(a) for mandating that dancers pay $60 in daily tip-out fees; (2) a class was properly certified on the NYLL 193(3)(a) claim of unlawful mandatory tip-out fees; and (3) none of the questions that defendants seek to certify for interlocutory appeal meets the standards of28 U.S.C. 1292(b). Further, in light of the Court's determination that damages on plaintiffs' NYLL 193(3)(a) mandatory tip-out claim are properly resolved on a classwide basis, there is no need to bifurcate trial, as might have been advisable had the tip-out claims of individual dancers been tried individually. The class's claims on that issue can, and in the interests of efficiency should, be resolved in the same trial as the class's other claims. Accordingly, there will be a single trial on all jury issues in this case, commencing April 27, 2015. The Clerk of Court is directed to terminate all pending motions in this case. SO ORDERED. (See Order.) (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 12/17/2014) (ajs) Modified on 12/19/2014 (ca).

Late on Friday, December 5, 2014, defendants filed a motion asking the Court to certify certain questions for an interlocutory appeal, and an accompanying memorandum of law. Dkt. 616, 617. At tomorrow's case conference, the Court will invite plaintiffs to respond briefly on the record; a written response from plaintiffs is due Friday, December 12, 2014. The Court does not invite a reply brief. Separately, the Court has carefully reviewed counsels' helpful submissions on the issue of whether plaintiffs' mandatory tip-out claims should be tried on a classwide basis. To assist the Court in resolving that question, at tomorrow's conference, counsel should be prepared to identify concretely the questions that they propose be put to the jury (i.e., on the verdict form) with regard to that claim if resolved on a classwide basis.

Filing 602
ORDER. The Court issues this Order sua sponte to direct the parties to brief two issues. Both relate to plaintiffs' claims that they were unlawfully required to pay $60 per shift in "tip-out" fees ($20 each to the disc jockey, the "house mom," and Club management). 1. May performance fees offset defendants' damages for mandatory $60 per-shift "tipout "fees? The Court directs counsel to brief this issue: Where it is established both that the Club mandated a dancer to pay $60 in "tip-out" fees on a particular day, and that the dancer earned a determinable amount of performance fees that day, should the Club's $60 liability for imposing the tip-out fee be offset by these performance fees? If this offset theory were correct, for a day in which a dancer demonstrably earned $60 or more in performance fees, the Club would remain liable to the dancer for failing to pay the minimum wage, but it would not owe the dancer additional compensation for imposing the $60 "tip-out" fee, and as further set forth. 2. Are plaintiffs' claims relating to "tip-out" fees susceptible to resolution on a classwide basis? The Court directs counsel to brief the following issue, with attention concretely to how plaintiffs' "tip-out" claims would be litigated at trial. The Court directs counsel to brief this issue assuming both alternative outcomes to the question presented above: i.e., that an offset is legally available where performance fees are shown to have been paid to a particular dancer on a particular day, and that such an offset is not legally available. The Court directs defendants to submit a brief of up to 20 pages addressing these issues due Wednesday, November 26, 2014, and directs plaintiffs to respond in a brief of up to 20 pages due Friday, December 3, 2014. Defendants may submit a reply brief of up to 10 pages, due Wednesday, December 8, 2014. The Court will endeavor to resolve these issues promptly. This Order does not alter the deadline (November 21, 2014) for the parties' joint letter as to the timing and content of the upcoming trial in this case, and as further set forth herein. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 11/17/2014) (rjm)

ORDER: The Court today issued a decision resolving the parties' pending pretrial motions. The Court intends shortly to schedule a jury trial on the discrete issues that remain unresolved, which are identified in today's decision. The Court intends to set a trial date sometime between February and July 2015. Although the Court has a variety of other trials scheduled, the Court is committed to holding a trial in this case within this six-month window. To enable it to choose a trial date, the Court directs counsel to submit a joint letter, by Friday, November 21, 2014, setting out each side's views on the following: (1) the estimated number of trial-days that the trial will occupy, with a concrete explanation as to the basis on which this estimate was reached; and (2) the witnesses, by name, whom the party would expect to call in its direct case. Counsel are directed to confer by the close of business on Wednesday, November 19, 2014, to discuss the likely contours of trial, and to share their lists of intended trial witnesses, so that each side can factor in this information in making an informed estimate as to the length of trial. The Court further directs each side, in the joint letter, to identify its lead trial counsel, to set out any individual dates on which that lead counsel is unavailable, and to state, with specificity, the basis for the claim of unavailability as to each particular date. General statements of unavailability will be disregarded. The Court will attempt, to the extent possible, to accommodate counsels' bona fide scheduling conflicts. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 11/14/2014) (djc)

OPINION & ORDER #104965 re: #550 MOTION for Summary Judgment on Plaintiffs' Fourth Claim for Relief Pursuant to NYLL 196-d and Defendants' Offset Affirmative Defenses. filed by Rick's Cabaret International Inc., Peregrine Enterprises, Inc., RCI Entertainment (New York) Inc., #509 MOTION for Decertification of Rule 23 Class and Conditionally Certified FLSA Collective. filed by Rick's Cabaret International Inc., Peregrine Enterprises, Inc., RCI Entertainment (New York) Inc., #512 MOTION to Strike the Expert Reports and Testimony of Dr. David L. Crawford. filed by Rick's Cabaret International Inc., Peregrine Enterprises, Inc., RCI Entertainment (New York) Inc., #554 MOTION for Summary Judgment on Damages. filed by Reka Furedi, Sabrina Hart, #544 MOTION for Summary Judgment on Defendants' Offset Theory and Plaintiffs' Retention of Gratuities Claim. filed by Reka Furedi, Sabrina Hart. For the foregoing reasons, the Court holds that: (1) performance fees do not "offset" wages under the NYLL; and (2) Peregrine is liable on Claim Four for retaining gratuities in violation of NYLL 196-d. The Court also denies defendants' motions to strike Dr. Crawford as an expert witness and to decertify the class. Finally, the Court grants, in part, plaintiffs' motions for summary judgment (or partial summary judgment) to the extent of $10,866,035 in damages. The Court intends shortly to set a trial date. An order with respect to trial will issue shortly. The Clerk of Court is directed to terminate the motions pending at docket numbers 509, 512, 544, 550, and 554. (Signed by Judge Paul A.

ORDER: On July 28, 2014, defendants requested permission to file in redacted form their opposition to plaintiffs' Local Rule 56.1 statement. Defendants seek only to redact "paragraph 683," which was the same paragraph that the Court permitted to be redacted in plaintiff's Local Rule 56.1 statement. That request is granted. Also on July 28, 2014, plaintiffs requested permission to file certain portions of defendants' accounting records under seal. The Court previously granted plaintiffs permission to file these documents under seal in connection with summary judgment motions filed in 2013. Specifically, plaintiffs request permission to file physical copies of exhibits 71, 80, 81, and 82 under seal; plaintiffs also request permission to file exhibits 173, 181, 182, and 188 under seal, on a CD in Excel format, as these exhibits are spreadsheets containing multiple rows and columns of data. These requests are granted. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 7/30/2014) (ajs)

ORDER re: #490 Order. 2. The Court adopts the schedule that the parties have jointly proposed for outstanding fact discovery. All fact discovery will be concluded by February 7, 2014. The parties' request for a two-week extension for expert discovery is also granted. All expert discovery will be concluded by February 21, 2014. 3. The parties ask that the deadline for briefing the issue of decertification be extended from January 24, 2014 to March 28, 2014, on the grounds that this issue may be affected by the Rule 30(b)(6) deposition of Defendant Peregrine Enterprises, Inc., which is due to be completed by January 17, 2014, and/or by expert discovery, which ends February 21, 2014. Accordingly, the parties propose the following briefing schedule: (1) opening brief (February 28, 2014); (2) response brief (March 14, 2014); and (3) reply brief (March 28, 2014). Although the Court's preference would have been a briefing schedule that concluded by the end of February, the Court, in deference to the parties' joint application and the reasons given therefore, will adopt the parties' proposed schedule. The parties should not expect any extension of this schedule. 4. Plaintiffs ask the Court to include within the topics briefed the issue of whether defendants are entitled to an offset under the NYLL. Defendants oppose this request. The Court denies plaintiffs request. It is premature for the Court to address that state-law issue while the issue of CAFA jurisdiction is unresolved. (Brief due by 2/28/2014. Expert Discovery due by 2/21/2014. Fact Discovery due by 2/7/2014. Motions due by 3/28/2014. Reply to Response to Brief due by 3/28/2014. Responses to Brief due by 3/14/2014) (Signed by Judge Paul A.

ORDER re: #488 Order. The parties have pointed out that the Court inadvertently stated once in its last Opinion & Order (Dkt. 488) that the class period end-date is October 31, 2013.

Filing 490
ORDER: As to a schedule for the three tasks identified above, the Court directs the following: 1. The Court wishes to obtain prompt briefing on the issue whether the Court has jurisdiction over plaintiffs' NYLL claims under CAFA. The Court directs plaintiffs to submit an opening brief on that issue, due by Thursday, December 12, 2013, and defendants to submit an opposition brief on that issue, due by Thursday, December 19, 2013. The Court does not invite a reply brief. The Court does not expect there to be significant, if any, disputed factual issues bearing on the applicability of CAFA. However, to assure that briefing is based on common factual assumptions, the Court directs counsel for both parties to promptly confer with one another, and to identify, for each other, by Friday, December 6, 2013, the facts that each believes may be relevant to the CAFA issue. Such facts may include, for example, the proportion of the plaintiff class that are citizens of New York, and the citizenship of the defendants. To the extent that any such facts of potential relevance to the CAFA inquiry are in dispute, counsel are to notify the Court of them by letter due by the close of business Friday, December 6, 2013, accompanied by counsel's proposal(s) for an expedited means of resolving these factual disputes, consistent with the briefing schedule set out above. For avoidance of doubt, counsel are directed to confer as to the accuracy of facts that either side regards as potentially material to the CAFA inquiry. A party's agreement that a particular fact is true will not be taken as an acknowledgment that that fact is relevant or material to the CAFA inquiry. 2. As to defendants' anticipated motion to decertify the FLSA and/or the NYLL class, the Court anticipates an opening brief by defendants, an opposition brief by plaintiffs, and a reply brief by defendants. The Court would like this briefing to be completed by Friday, January 24, 2014. The Court directs counsel to meet and confer and to agree, by Friday, December 6, 2013, upon a briefing schedule consistent with that due date. The Court is leaving to the parties the setting of the briefing schedule in the expectation that, in setting such a schedule, the parties will be respectful of one another's holiday schedules and availability. The parties' agreed briefing schedule is to be submitted to the Court by Friday, December 6, 2013. 3. As to outstanding discovery, the Court directs that all discovery in this case, factual and expert, be concluded by February 7, 2014. The Court directs counsel to meet and confer and to agree upon a schedule as to specific due dates consistent with this outside deadline. The parties' agreed schedule as to outstanding discovery is to be submitted to the Court by Friday, December 6, 2013.( Expert Discovery due by 2/7/2014. Fact Discovery due by 2/7/2014.)

Filing 488
ORDER: The Court has today issued an Opinion and Order denying defendants' motion for reconsideration, setting the class-period end-date, and resolving liability issues as to Claim Five. Dkt. 487. The parties are now directed to meet and confer promptly as to how the case can most efficiently proceed. The Court directs the parties to submit a joint letter, by November 27, 2013, setting forth their respective views. The Court specifically directs counsel to address whether any legal issues remain to be addressed before trial on the merits may proceed, and if so, specifically what those legal issues are. The Court also asks counsel to enumerate--separately as to federal claims and as to state-law claims-the unresolved issues in the case. As to each such issue, counsel are to indicate whether it is a legal issue for the Court or a factual issue for a jury. Counsel should identify issues both as to liability and as to damages. As to the latter point, the Court advises counsel that it is actively considering resolving first (through motions practice and/or trial) all unresolved issues relating to plaintiffs' claims under the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"), 29 U.S.C. 201 et seq. Were the case to proceed in this fashion, after resolution of the federal claims, the Court would then determine whether to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over plaintiffs' claims under the New York Labor Law ("NYLL"), 190 et seq. & 650 et seq. The Court directs counsel to meet and confer on that issue and, in their joint letter, to set out their views on whether it is sensible for the FLSA claims to be tried first as further set forth herein. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 11/18/2013) (djc) Modified on 11/19/2013 (djc). Modified on 11/19/2013 (djc).

ORDER: On September 18, 2013, the Court received a letter from defendants requesting an extension of the time limit for submitting a motion for reconsideration on the limited issue of whether summary judgment for plaintiffs was warranted for the time period after February 2010. Dkt. 461. Defendants note that that issue overlaps with an issue the Court stated it intended to take up: namely, the appropriate end date of the class period. Dkt. 460 at 5 n.2. The Court agrees that these two issues are related, and therefore, grants the defendants' request for an extension. Defendants are hereby ordered to file, by October 8, 2013, any motion for reconsideration and any motion as to the end date of the class period. Plaintiffs are ordered to file responses by October 22, 2013, and as further set forth in this document. ( Motion due by 10/8/2013. Responses due by 10/22/2013) (Signed by Judge Paul A.

Filing 460
OPINION & ORDER: For the reasons stated above, the Court grants in part and denies in part plaintiffs motion for summary judgment, and denies in its entirety defendants motion for summary judgment. Specifically, as to plaintiffs motions: 1. On plaintiffs causes of action for minimum wages based on the FLSA (Claim One) and the NYLL (Claim Two), the Court finds as a matter of law that plaintiffs were employees of Ricks NY and that Ricks NYS statutory duty to pay minimum wages was not satisfied by the plaintiffs receipt of performance fees. The Court further finds that defendant Peregrine was an employer of plaintiffs, and therefore is liable to the extent of any finding of liability on any of the claims in this case. Accordingly, the Court holds that Peregrine is liable to plaintiffs on Claims One and Two. Summary judgment for plaintiffs as to liability on Claims One and Two as against Peregrine is therefore granted. However, the Court denies plaintiffs motions for summary judgment as to willfulness and lack of good faith under both the FLSA and NYLL. Those issues are left for trial. 2. On plaintiffs cause of action for unlawful deduction of wages (Claim Five), the Court finds that plaintiffs wages were unlawfully deducted to the extent, if any, that the fines and tip-outs imposed by Ricks NY are properly viewed as having been deducted from wages, as opposed to, for example, tip compensation from customers. However, the parties have not briefed the issue whether the deductions by Ricks NY, which were made from performance fees paid by customers, were from wages, as the NYLL requires. Because the parties have not addressed that issue, the Court denies plaintiffs motion for summary judgment on Claim Five. That denial is, however, without prejudice. Each party will be permitted, on a schedule to be set, to move for summary judgment on that claim, limited to the sole unresolved issue of whether the deductions were from wages. 3. On plaintiffs' motions for summary judgment with respect to its claims against RCINY and RCII, the Court denies those motions, in light of material disputed issues of fact. Whether RCI NY and RCII were joint employers, along with Peregrine, of the plaintiffs is left for trial. 4. Plaintiffs' motion for summary judgment on defendants' counterclaim for unjust enrichment is granted. 5. Plaintiffs' motion to supplement the record is granted. The Clerk of Court is directed to terminate the motions pending at docket numbers 384, 415, and 439. The parties are directed to meet and confer, for at least two hours, by September 23, 2013, as to (1) the future course of this litigation; and (2) the prospects for settlement. The parties are directed to submit to the Court, by September 27, 2013, a joint letter setting out, in detail, their joint (or if there is disagreement, their respective views as to next steps in, and the future course of, this litigation. The letter should include a proposed briefing schedule as to the outstanding "from wages" issue on Count Five. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 9/10/2013) (cd)

Filing 455
ORDER: The Court solicits the views of counsel on the following questions of law, relating to the issue in this case of whether plaintiffs are employees: On the pending summary judgment motion, whether plaintiffs are employees is a question of law, but the existence and degree of each factor bearing on that legal issue is a question of fact. See Brock v. Superior Care, Inc., 840 F.2d 1054,1059 (2d Cir. 1988). A number of cases cited by counsel involved bench trials, in which it was the Court's role to resolve these questions of fact. See, e.g., id. This case, however, is to be tried to a jury. If the Court determines that there are no material disputes of fact, the Court can resolve the legal question whether plaintiffs are employees on summary judgment. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a); Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 322-23 (1986); Holcomb v. Iona Coll., 521 F.3d 130, 132 (2d Cir. 2008). If, however, the Court determines that there are material disputes of fact bearing on that question that preclude its resolution on summary judgment, the issue arises as to how that question is to be resolved. 1. Is the Court, or the jury, to make the factual determination as to the existence and degree of each of the factors bearing on whether plaintiffs are employees? 2. If the Court is to make those factual determinations, are those determinations to be made prior to or during the jury trial? 3. If the jury is to make those factual determinations, is it the Court, or the jury, which is to make the ensuing legal determination whether, in light of the jury's factual determinations, plaintiffs are employees? 4. If the Court is to make the legal determination whether plaintiffs are employees, based on the jury's factual determinations, concretely how do the parties envision that the jury's factual determinations will be organized and transmitted to the Court at trial so as to enable the Court to make that determination? The Court directs counsel to submit a joint letter by 5 p.m. on Tuesday, July 16, 2013, setting forth the parties' positions on these issues, citing on-point legal authority. Counsel are directed to confer in advance of that submission, in the hope that such dialogue will lead counsel to a common conclusion. In the event the parties disagree, each side may set forth its position is up to three single- spaced pages within the joint letter. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 7/10/2013) (rsh)

The parties will be permitted to take in excess of 10 depositions upon a showing of good cause. The following rules shall govern all pretrial activity in this case: If any discovery disputes arise during this case, the parties must make a good faith effort to resolve them. If disputes cannot be resolved, they should be brought to the Court's attention by letter. This letter should be brief and to the point so as to allow for expeditious resolution of discovery disputes without the need for formal motions. A responsive letter should be submitted within three days. Failure to bring disputes to my attention promptly and in advance of the discovery deadline will result in a waiver of remedies as to such disputes. Telephonic applications will be entertained only where disputes arise in the course of depositions or in genuine emergencies. In all other cases, applications must be made by letter to my chambers. If the application is for an extension of time, the letter-application (indicating whether all parties consent) must be delivered to my chambers at least ten days prior to the original due date. Papers filed with the Court should be marked "Referred to Magistrate Judge Katz." The Clerk of the Court and my chambers must be advised of any change of address or telephone number. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Theodore H. Katz on 7/10/09) (tro)
