CA4 on Slavery (TVPA, FLSA) - Cruz v. Maypa

"Cruz alleges that she was forced to work for the defendants for wages well below the minimum from 2002 until her escape in 2008.  The district court dismissed all of her claims as time-barred.  We affirm the district court’s dismissal of Cruz’s state law claims, but we reverse the dismissal of her TVPA and FLSA claims and remand for further proceedings." - Cruz v. Maypa, Dec. 1, 2014.
