IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

NORTHERN DIVISION

KEVIN SANFORD, individually and on

behalf of all others similarly situated PLAINTIFF

v. Case No. 3:18-cv-00158-KGB

NUCOR-YAMATO STEEL COMPANY and

NUCOR CORPORATION DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Plaintiff Kevin Sanford, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed 

this action against defendants Nucor-Yamato Steel Company and Nucor Corporation (collectively, 

“defendants”), alleging violations of the overtime requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 

1938 (“FLSA”), 29 U.S.C. §§ 201–219, and the Arkansas Minimum Wage Act (“AMWA”), Ark. 

Code Ann. §§ 11-4-201 to 11-4-222 (Dkt. No. 1). The parties filed a stipulation of dismissal 

requesting that the Court dismiss Mr. Sanford’s claims against separate defendant Nucor 

Corporation without prejudice (Dkt. No. 13). The parties represent that the stipulation of dismissal 

is not a dismissal of the case (Id.). The stipulation of dismissal accords with the terms of Rule 

41(a)(1)(A)(ii) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. For good cause shown, the Court adopts 

the stipulation of dismissal. The Court dismisses without prejudice Mr. Sanford’s claims against 

separate defendant Nucor Corporation, recognizing that dismissal without prejudice of the claims 

against this one defendant does not equate to dismissal of the case as the claims against separate 

defendant Nucor-Yamato Steel Company remain pending.

It is so ordered this 29th day of May, 2020.
