The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette can't stop the National Labor Relations Board's injunction request to make the newspaper bargain with three unions based on constitutional claims about the agency, a Pennsylvania federal judge ruled Tuesday, saying the court would not "ignore nearly a century's worth of settled jurisprudence."
In the first court challenge to the National Labor Relations Board's landmark Cemex ruling, the Ninth Circuit grappled Monday with whether the labor board's new standard for issuing bargaining orders complies with a framework the U.S. Supreme Court set out more than 50 years ago.
The Ninth Circuit will hear arguments Monday in the first challenge to the National Labor Relations Board's revised approach to ordering employers that interfere with organizing drives to recognize and bargain with unions. Here, Law360 previews the hearing.
