ESSAY QUESTION ONE (41.7% - 1 hоur, 15 minutes) Trоller, Inc., а cоmpаny incorporаted in Delaware, provides services to client companies seeking to improve their social media image by stamping out negative publicity. Troller was incorporated and began operations in June 2020. For a fee, Troller will search social media platforms for negative commentary on client companies and have its team of “Troller Trolls” post negative responses on the social media platform. These tactics have proven successful in discouraging criticism of Troller Trolls’ clients. For example, the California-based video game company Krazyplayer, Inc. contracted with Troller to counter negative social media posts about its new game Warmonkeys. Troller’s team of trolls searched social media and posted responses verbally attacking Warmonkeys’ critics. Trollers’ negative responses came from a variety of Twitter accounts created by Troller Trolls. This tactic was successful in stifling criticism of Warmonkeys and other Krazyplayer products. Troller, Inc. is jointly owned and operated by the twin brother and sister team who founded the company, Jamal and Sabrina Wang. Jamal holds the title chief technology and finance officer, while Sabrina holds the title chief executive and personnel officer. Throughout the relevant period of time, Jamal has lived with his mother in Des Moines, Iowa, in the home where he and Sabrina grew up. Jamal’s role at the company is to manage the technological and financial aspects of Troller’s business. He works with the company’s clients and maintains all of its business records on his laptop. Sabrina handles personnel for the company, including the hiring and firing of employees. She hires Troller Trolls by posting online ads and interviewing candidates through Zoom. All of the company’s interactions with job candidates and employees take place online. As a part of the application process, employees provide their home address. The company only hires people who live in the U.S., paying them a standard rate of $10 per hour. Jamal and Sabrina have not met any of the people working as Troller Trolls in person, nor do they verify their home addresses. All of Troller’s payments to their workers are made online. Troller has expanded its operations rapidly since 2020. It had only five workers in June 2020, but now has 150 workers (12 in Arizona) and 60 clients (5 in Arizona), and over $2 million in net annual revenue. Sabrina moved from Des Moines, IA to Phoenix, AZ in August 2019, to attend Arizona State University (ASU). She dropped out of ASU in June 2020, when she and her brother started Troller, and has moved frequently since then. She lived at three different apartments in the Phoenix area between August 2019 and June 2021, then lived with her boyfriend at his condo in San Diego, CA between July 2021 and March 2022. She has made five weeklong trips to Iowa to visit her family between 2020 and the present. She still holds a valid Iowa driver’s license and uses a Chase bank account that she opened while living in California. She currently has a month-to-month lease on an apartment in Tucson, AZ, where she has been living since March 2022. She is thinking about returning to San Diego for the summer, but does not have definite plans to do so; nor does she have definite plans to return to ASU or to Iowa, though she is considering both possibilities as well. For now, Sabrina is happy with her itinerant lifestyle and the ability to work where she pleases. Troller hires people throughout the U.S. to work as Troller Trolls. The federal minimum wage is $7.25/hour, well below the $10 rate that Troller pays. However, some states have a higher minimum wage. One of those states is Arizona ($12.80/hour). In 2021, a U.S. citizen working for Troller from her home in Arizona, Frances Fagan, brought suit against Troller, Inc. in Arizona state court, seeking $5000 in back wages. To prevail on such a claim, Arizona law requires a showing that: 1) the plaintiff is an “employee” as defined by Arizona law, 2) the employee performed work for the defendant in Arizona, and 3) the employee received inadequate compensation under Arizona law. Troller’s lawyer who made a special appearance, moving to dismiss on the ground that the state court lacked personal jurisdiction. There was an opportunity for discovery, but none was taken. The court denied the motion to dismiss, finding specific jurisdiction over Troller. The company took no further action to defend itself. Accordingly, the Arizona state court issued a default judgment against Troller and in favor of Fagan in the amount of $5000 for back wages she earned through the date of judgment, July 30, 2021. Troller did not appeal. To address the problem of online workers were being paid wages below the state minimum wage by out-of-state employers, Congress enacted a new federal statute that took effect January 1, 2021: the Protect Online Employees Rights (POER) Act. The POER Act gives employees paid less than the state minimum wage the right to sue for treble damages. To prevail on a claim under the POER Act, a plaintiff must show that: 1) plaintiff is an “employee” as defined by state law, 2) the employee performed work for the defendant in the state, 3) the employee received inadequate compensation under state law, and 4) the employer was engaged in interstate commerce. Plaintiffs who make this showing are entitled to recover treble damages – that is, three times the amount of back wages they were denied. Fagan stopped working for Troller after the July 2021 state-court judgment in her favor, but resumed working for the company in early 2022. Troller continued to pay her $10/hour. In April 1, 2022, Fagan and 11 other named individuals working for Troller from their Arizona homes brought a complaint against Troller, Jamal Wang, and Sabrina Wang, in U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona. The complaint asserts jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331, 1332, and 1367. It makes two claims on behalf of all plaintiffs: 1) a claim under the POER Act for failure to pay Arizona’s minimum wage, and 2) a claim directly under Arizona’s minimum wage law. Plaintiffs ask for treble damages on their POER Act claims, and they ask for compensatory and punitive damages on their Arizona minimum wage law claims. The prayer for punitive damages is based on the allegation that defendants willfully and wantonly violated plaintiffs’ rights. Fagan seeks total damages of $100,000 on her federal and state claims. The other 11 plaintiffs seek total damages between $30,000 and $70,000 on their claims. You should assume that plaintiffs have a good chance of establishing damages in these amounts, if their claims are permitted to proceed. Arizona has a “tort reform” statute that bars plaintiffs from seeking punitive damages in their original complaint. Instead, they must request leave from the court to amend the complaint, which may only be granted if there is a “reasonable likelihood” that plaintiff can prove willful or wanton actions by defendants that would support punitive damages. There is no such requirement in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, including FRCP 8, and FRCP 15(a) provides: (a) Amendments Before Trial. (1) Amending as a Matter of Course. A party may amend its pleading once as a matter of course within: (A) 21 days after serving it, or (B) if the pleading is one to which a responsive pleading is required, 21 days after service of a responsive pleading or 21 days after service of a motion under Rule 12(b), (e), or (f), whichever is earlier. (2) Other Amendments. In all other cases, a party may amend its pleading only with the opposing party's written consent or the court's leave. The court should freely give leave when justice so requires. A week after filing, a process server over 18 delivered the summons and complaint to Jamal and Sabrina’s mother (who is of sound mind) at the Wangs’ home in Des Moines. Ms. Wang left the summons and complaint in Jamal’s bedroom, but he did not read them. Plaintiffs’ lawyers were unable to locate Sabrina, but they sent a PDF of the summons and complaint to her by email. She received the PDF and read the documents. Defendants’ lawyers then called plaintiffs’ lead counsel, saying that defendants plan to file a motion to dismiss based on lack of subject matter jurisdiction, lack of personal jurisdiction, lack of venue, inadequate service of process, improper joinder, and claim preclusion. Defendants also plan to move to dismiss plaintiffs’ punitive damages claims for noncompliance with Arizona’s tort reform statute. You have just been hired by the firm representing plaintiffs in this case. The partner in charge has asked you to assess the likelihood of defendants succeeding on a motion to dismiss on each of the above grounds, including counterarguments that plaintiffs should consider. In addition, the partner has asked you to address whether there are any preclusion arguments that plaintiffs can make. Finally, you have been asked to briefly assess what other courts plaintiffs might sue in, if the motion to dismiss is granted. Please assume that all relevant states permit service in exactly the same ways authorized by federal law and allow personal jurisdiction to the full extent the Constitution permits.
