Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Florida


Before TJOFLAT and WILSON, Circuit Judges, and COOGLER, District Judge. PER CURIAM:

Honorable L. Scott Coogler, United States District Judge for the Northern District of Alabama, sitting by designation.

This appeal arises from Appellants' complaint alleging violations of the minimum wage, overtime, and retaliation provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. §§ 201-219. On March 30, 2011, the district court granted the Appellees' motion for partial summary judgment on the minimum wage and retaliation claims, and this appeal followed. After carefully reviewing both parties' briefs, and with the benefit of oral argument, we affirm the partial grant of summary judgment entered against the Appellants for the reasons set forth in the well-reasoned order entered by the district court on March 30, 2011.

After the order granting partial summary judgment, a jury returned a verdict for Appellees on Appellant's overtime claims. Although Appellants' Notice of Appeal purports to challenge that verdict, their brief makes no corresponding argument. We therefore deem it waived. See Access Now, Inc. v. Southwest Airlines Co., 385 F.3d 1324, 1330 (11th Cir. 2004).
--------

AFFIRMED.
