Abstract
In a long-awaited decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit issued its ruling in the case of Johnson, et al. v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, et al., which deals with the employment status of collegiate student-athletes. However, instead of a sweeping decision declaring whether they are or aren’t employees, the Court created a new legal standard by which an assessment of employment status should be made.
