National Labor Relations Board v. Brotherhood of Teamsters
National Labor Relations Board v. Brotherhood of Teamsters
Opinion of the Court
The Board’s Order before us was based upon its finding that respondent union had violated Sections 8(b)(3) and 8(b) (1)(B) of the National Labor Relations Act, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 151 et seq. It was the determination of the Board that the respondent union, a member of a multi-union-multi-employer unit, had unlawfully refused to bargain by refusing to be bound by the negotiations of its representatives, such action “coming after negotiations for a new contract had been all but completed.”
The offenses charged do not turn upon the existence or nonexistence of a new national agreement, whether signed or unsigned, executed or executory, but rather upon the attempted withdrawal from the unit under the circumstances described and the concomitant restraint and coercion practiced. See NLRB v. Jeffries Banknote Co., 281 F.2d 893 (CA 9, 1960); NLRB v. Hart, 453 F.2d 215 (CA 9, 1971).
We have reviewed the record and find substantial support therein to support the Board’s factual determinations. The Petition of Enforcement is therefore granted and the Board’s Order will be enforced.
