National Labor Relations Board v. Local Union 522, Lumber Drivers, Warehousemen & Handlers, International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen & Helpers

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit
National Labor Relations Board v. Local Union 522, Lumber Drivers, Warehousemen & Handlers, International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen & Helpers, 294 F.2d 811 (3d Cir. 1961)

National Labor Relations Board v. Local Union 522, Lumber Drivers, Warehousemen & Handlers, International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen & Helpers

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

In this case the respondent opposes the Board’s petition for enforcement of an order on the ground that the order is too broad. The Board found that the respondent’s activities disclosed “a pattern of conduct contemptuous of the Act” and has issued an order appropriate to that finding. The business of • shaping a remedy for unfair labor prac*812tices is primarily that of the Board. Courts do order modifications of the Board’s orders when, in the judgment of the court, they go too far. We have done so, for instance, in Lakeland Bus Lines, Inc. v. N. L. R. B., 3 Cir., 1960, 278 F.2d 888, and in N. L. R. B. v. Brewery and Beer Distributor Drivers, 3 Cir., 1960, 281 F.2d 319. In the case at bar, however, unfair labor practices, which are not denied, support the Board’s conclusion in the terms quoted above and the remedy is appropriate to that conclusion. The petition of the Board for enforcement will be granted.
