The court granted the defendant's motion for summary judgment on both claims. The plaintiff failed to establish protected activity under the FLSA because her complaints were made in her HR capacity rather than as an adversarial assertion of statutory rights, and her wrongful discharge claim under Michigan public policy also failed.
