declining to include language advising potential plaintiffs of possible obligation to answer interrogatories, be deposed, or testify because "individual discovery is rarely appropriate in FLSA collective actions"

Summary of this case from Wingo v. Martin Transp., Inc.

In Prentice, the court explicitly declined to adopt the approach taken in Adams and concluded that a refusal to produce contact information prior to conditional certification did not warrant equitable tolling. "If refusal to disclose contact information is sufficient basis to grant equitable tolling, either the FLSA statute of limitations is meaningless or the Courts are reading a disclosure requirement into the FLSA where the statute does not contain such a requirement."
