Failure to Exhaust Bars Challenge to Union’s Defectively Served NLRB Subpoena: Ninth Circuit | Practical Law
In NLRB v. Fresh and Easy Neighborhood Market, Inc., the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit upheld a district court's order enforcing a subpoena served on an employer before a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) hearing. The Ninth Circuit held that the union's defective service of the subpoena on the employer's counsel was insufficient to excuse the employer from its obligation to petition to revoke the subpoena according to agency procedure.
