Kevin Kasten v. Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics Corporation — Scalia, J., Dissenting

Summary

Justice Scalia, with Justice Thomas joining as to all but footnote 6, dissents. He argues the FLSA anti-retaliation provision covers only official grievances filed with courts or agencies, not complaints to employers. He further challenges the majority's deference to agency views and asserts the question presented fairly includes whether intracompany complaints are protected.
