Heading: Miscellaneous Jury Instructions

Text: Plaintiffs further argue that the district court erred in refusing to give jury instructions that highlighted the County's duty to ensure that the officers refrained from performing overtime work and that the County had an obligation to keep records of the time its employees worked. We disagree. Provided that the charge as a whole fairly and adequately submits the issue to the jury, we will find no reversible error. See May, 993 F.2d at 637. We find no reason to disturb the refusal of the court to provide such instructions as they were largely repetitive in light of the other instructions regarding the effect of the County's knowledge of its employees' overtime and the County's general obligations under the FLSA. We find no reversible error with the district court's instructions.
