The trial and appellate courts within the Eleventh Circuit handed down a number of important opinions affecting labor and employment law during the survey period from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007. These included significant decisions defining key terms under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act ("SOX") and there were notable decisions involving the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") and the Family and Medical Leave Act ("FMLA").
