Motion for a TRO Within an Otherwise Non-frivolous Case can be the Basis of ULP for Retaliatory Litigation: NLRB | Practical Law
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) held that a motion for a temporary restraining order (TRO) within an otherwise non-frivolous case can be the basis of unfair labor practice (ULP) charges for retaliatory litigation. In Milum Textile Services Co., a decision dated December 30, 2011, the NLRB found that Milum's filing and maintenance of the motion violated Section 8(a)(1) of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). In this decision, the NLRB continues to change its retaliatory lawsuit analysis.
