Description
This appeal raises a troublesome and recurring problem pertaining to the award of attorneys fees and costs to a prevailing party under a federal statute and the duty of a district court in dealing with the prevailing partys petition for fees. Catherine M. Loughner ("Loughner") brought an action under, inter alia, the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"), against The University of Pittsbur gh ("University") and the Presbyterian University Hospital ("Hospital"), for payment of unpaid wages and overtime compensation due her on the termination of her employment. Specifically, she claimed $3,169.28 in "base pay" unpaid wages and $25,218.06 in overtime pay pursuant to federal and Pennsylvania law. On the eve of trial the parties, stipulating that Loughner was the prevailing party, settled all claims, including overtime wages, liquidated damages, and interest, for $27,000.
