Labor Law - Labor-Management Relations Act- Extent Of Discretion Exercised By District Courts In Issuing Temporary Injunctions Against Alleged Unfair Labor Practice, John A. Beach S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

The Labor-Management Relations Act gives federal district courts jurisdiction to grant injunctions in two different situations, notwithstanding the general policy against granting in junctions in labor disputes not involving fraud or violence set by the Norris-LaGuardia Act. The grant of limited injunctive jurisdiction given by section 208 in one situation, national emergencies, will not be discussed. This comment will deal only with the other, the grant of jurisdiction in sections 10(j) and (l) to enjoin alleged unfair labor practices at the request of the National Labor Relations Board's regional officer, pending a disposition of the charges by the …

Michigan Law Review

A union had been recognized by an employer for three years. Pursuant to a reopening clause in the current contract the union asked for a IO-cent wage increase.

The National Labor Relations Board found that the company had failed to bargain in good faith with …

Labor Law - Lmra - Status Of A Walkout Prompted By Health Reasons In The Face Of A No-Strike Clause, Robert E. Hammell S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

The employer and the union were covered by a contract which contained a no-strike clause. In spite of this agreement, buffers in the employer's plant walked off their jobs when a blower in the buffing room failed to carry away dust and cool the area properly. The trial examiner found that the walkout was a protected concerted activity and not a strike, and that the employer had therefore committed an unfair labor practice by refusing to permit the buffers to return to their jobs when the blower had been repaired. On exceptions taken to these findings, the NLRB reviewed and …
