I posted about the Court of Appeal's opinion in Harris v. Superior Court here. That decision, on remand from the California Supreme Court, would have severely limited the administrative exemption. Fortunately, the California Supreme Court has now de-published the decision (here), so it is no longer good law. The bad news is that the Supreme Court's guidance on the administrative exemption is rather vague and remains open to lower courts' interpretations.
