These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(a) The following persons are not subject to this chapter— (1) Family business exemption. — Any individual who engages in a farm labor contracting activity on behalf of a farm ... which is owned or operated exclusively by such individual or an immediate family member of such individual, if such activities are performed only for such operation and exclusively by such individual or an immediate family member, but without regard to whether such individual has incorporated or otherwise organized for business purposes.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. Malacara v. Garber“This definition collects a number of contractual endeavors: making a contract of employment (“hiring”), maintaining a worker in the labor force (“employing”), preparing to do these things (“recruiting” and “soliciting”), and doing them for others (“furnishing”). The final term in this sequence, “transporting”, can be understood as still another contractual activity: obtaining and paying for a ticket that brings the worker to the farm or sends him to the next one.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. Malacara v. Garber““[A] court evaluating a farmer’s claim to the family business exemption must conduct a two-step analysis. First, the court must identify the labor contracting activities involved in the farm’s operation. Second, the court must ascertain whether these farm labor contracting activities were performed exclusively by members of the farmers family.””
