National Labor Relations Board v. Courtyard Manor of Livonia
National Labor Relations Board v. Courtyard Manor of Livonia
Opinion of the Court
JUDGMENT
The National Labor Relations Board (the “Board”) applies for summary enforcement of its April 21, 2004, decision and order in Cases No. 7-CA-46860, 7-CA-46907, and 7-CA-47054 in which it found the respondent violated federal labor law and directed the respondent to take certain remedial steps stated therein. The respondent did not file an answer to the complaint and has not made an appearance either before the Board or this court. Under these circumstances, we conclude the Board is entitled to the relief sought. See 29 U.S.C. § 160(e).
It therefore is ORDERED and ADJUDGED that the Board’s decision and order in Cases No. 7-CA-46860, 7-CA-46907, and 7-CA-47054 is hereby enforced. The respondent, Courtyard Manor of Livonia, its officers, agents, successors, and assigns, shall abide by the provisions of said decision and order. (See Attachments.)
