The Lochner era, named for the landmark US Supreme Court case Lochner v. New York, 198 US 45 (1905) is a period in American history that roughly corresponds to the second industrial revolution and the Great Depression (1897-1937), and is marked by Court decisions that favored corporations over labor.
Most of the cases (including Lochner) dealt with regulation of work hours and minimum wage legislation, both of which were ruled unconstitutional under the Fourteenth Amendment Due Process Clause, as interfering the worker's liberty right to contract independently with the employer. The Court also considered government labor regulations "unreasonable, unnecessary and arbitrary interference with the right and liberty of the individual to contract," and that minimum wage laws, "artificially [restrict] the employer's side of the negotiation."
The Lochner era came to a close when the Court finally upheld the constitutionality of a Washington state minimum wage law in West Coast Hotel v. Parrish, 300 US 379 (1939).

Hostile. The nine Lochner-era justices Roosevelt inherited from earlier administrations opposed most of his New Deal legislation, declaring six of the eight major Acts unconstitutional. The 1935 and 1936 Terms were especially brutal, but the Court began to shift toward a more progressive stance in 1937, as the older justices retired and were replaced. Roosevelt appointed eight new, liberal, justices between 1937 and 1943, beginning a progressive era that lasted into the 1970s.
