Retail Store Employees Union Local 1001 V. Nlrb (Safeco Title Insurance Co.): Extending Tree Fruits To Protect Picketing Of Predominant Product Secondaries, Ann C. Hodges
Law Faculty Publications
The consumer product boycott is a traditional weapon employed by organized labor in disputes with employers. Picketing to solicit support from the public and other workers is also a traditional labor tactic. The legality of seeking support by combining these two methods--picketing a retailer to urge a consumer boycott of the primary employer's product-has been a source of disagreement among the Supreme Court, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, and the National Labor Relations Board. The contested issue is whether picketing to instigate a product boycott on the premises of an employer with whom the …
Employee Covenants Not To Compete: Where Does Virginia Stand?, Ann R. Bergan, Kenneth E. Chadwick, Hugh T. Harrison Ii, Barrett E. Pope
Employee Covenants Not To Compete: Where Does Virginia Stand?, Ann R. Bergan, Kenneth E. Chadwick, Hugh T. Harrison Ii, Barrett E. Pope
University of Richmond Law Review
Courts for some time now have been forced to deal with the validity of covenants not to compete as contained in employment contracts. Considered to be a restraint against trade, these covenants under common law were viewed with disfavor, if not hostility, both nationally and in the Commonwealth of Virginia, as being contrary to the American ideals of individual freedom, competition, and the free flow of commerce. As such they were seldom upheld. It was only after the courts recognized that employers had legitimate concerns and interests worthy of protections that reasonable covenants not to compete began to be enforced …
Scrutiny Of Osha Regulations In The Courts: A Study Of Judicial Activism, Elizabeth C. Gay
Scrutiny Of Osha Regulations In The Courts: A Study Of Judicial Activism, Elizabeth C. Gay
University of Richmond Law Review
Little trace of the concept of judicial deference can be found in the Fifth Circuit's recent ruling in American Petroleum Institute v. Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Against the background of a slowly emerging body of law regarding the scope of judicial review of Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations, the Fifth Circuit's decision represents a bold extension of the court's authority to define the parameters of OSHA's regulatory authority. Whether this case in fact signals a new wave of judicial activism will soon be determined by the United States Supreme Court. But regardless of the Supreme Court's ultimate resolution …
Recovery For Accidental Injuries Under The Virginia Workmen's Compensation Act, Douglas E. Ray, R. Craig Evans, Jay H. Steele
Recovery For Accidental Injuries Under The Virginia Workmen's Compensation Act, Douglas E. Ray, R. Craig Evans, Jay H. Steele
University of Richmond Law Review
The Virginia Workmen's Compensation Act, first enacted in 1918, generally provides for case benefits and medical care to individuals injured in employment-related accidents. While the Act is neither tort law nor social insurance, it contains elements of both. As social legislation, the Act plays an important role in protecting citizens from loss of wages and provides an important supplement to protection available from the federal Old Age, Survivors' Disability and Health Insurance Program, unemployment compensation and private health and accident insurance plans. In 1979, more than 43,000 Virginia employees filed claims under the Act. Unlike other social insurance programs, however, …

Qualified Plans Under Erisa: Tax Shelter Or Bureaucratic Paper Chase?, Louise Cobb Boggs
University of Richmond Law Review
The enactment of the Employee Retirement Security Act of 1974 has had a profound and far-reaching impact upon existing employee benefit plans and upon those which have since been created. ERISA, as the act is commonly designated, is a comprehen- sive federal statute with strong consumer protection overtones which sets up strict requirements for regulating most aspects of the operation and administration of private employee benefit plans. Its primary goals are: (1) to protect benefit rights and to provide retirement security for the participants of employee benefit plans by setting out minimum standards for nondiscriminatory participation, vesting, benefit accrual, and …
