Civil litigation — Maryland Wage and Hour Law — Class certification

This is an appeal from a judgment entered by the Circuit Court for Prince George’s County in favor of appellees.

Appellants timely appealed and present the following questions for our review: 1. Did the Circuit Court err in granting appellees’ motion for judgment at the close of appellants’ evidence based upon the federal Portal-to-Portal Act and contrary to Maryland law under the Maryland Wage and Hour Law, the Maryland Wage Payment and Collection Law, and the Code of Maryland Regulations? 2. Did the Circuit Court err in dismissing the entire action when appellees did not move for judgment on appellants’ unjust enrichment claim? 3. Did the Circuit Court err in denying appellants’ motion for class certification, motion to reconsider, and renewed motion for class certification in relying on “assertions” and “proffers” of the appellees in the face of appellants’ sworn testimony?
