City of Talladega, 24 F.3d 1337 (11th Cir.1994); Atlanta Professional Firefighters Union, Local 134 v. City of Atlanta, 920 F.2d 800 (11th Cir.1991). Further, in the landmark United States Supreme Court decision of Garcia v. San Antonio Metropolitan Transit Authority, 469 U.S. 528, 105 S.Ct. 1005, 83 L.Ed.2d 1016 (1985), in which the Court held the overtime and minimum wage requirements of the Fair
SO ORDERED.
