Description

WINTER, C. J.: Plaintiff, whose local draft board classified him as a conscientious objector, performed civilian work of national importance in lieu of induction into the armed forces by becoming a training assistant of defendant, Penn Community Services, Inc., an eleemosynary corporation sponsoring adult education programs and rendering services in a rural community of South Carolina. After his selective service local board effected his release, he sued under the Fair Labor Standards Act claiming that during the time that he was performing civilian work of national importance he was paid less than the minimum wage and not paid overtime, both as prescribed by the Act. The district judge awarded him judgment for the difference between the amounts paid and the applicable minimum wage, for unpaid overtime and for attorneys' fees -- a total judgment of $7,786.14. Defendant appeals, contending that it owes plaintiff nothing, and plaintiff appeals, contending that he was entitled to double his award, less attorneys' fees, as liquidated damages. We conclude that, under the particular circumstances of this case, plaintiff was not covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act and, hence, we reverse and direct that judgment be entered for defendant.
