Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA

MIN HUI LIN, on his own behalf and on CIVIL ACTION behalf of others similary situated NO. 23-3111 v.

LEE’S HOUSE RESTAURANT, INC., SEN LIN, BAIQUN LIN

ORDER AND NOW, this 23rd day of May, 2024, it is ORDERED, for the reasons stated in the foregoing memorandum, that Plaintiff’s motion for conditional certification (ECF 20) is DENIED. In so denying, the Court notes that “denial at the conditional certification stage is not necessarily a final determination of whether the matter may proceed as a collective action,” as certification may be “revisited after discovery or efforts by the named plaintiff to re-define the contours of the proposed collective action.” Halle v. W. Penn Allegheny Health Sys. Inc., 842 F.3d 215, 224-225 (3d Cir. 2016); see also Symczyk v.
