Employer's Challenge to NLRB Composition Was Not Waived by Failure to Raise Before Election: Third Circuit | Practical Law
In Advanced Disposal Services East, Inc. v. NLRB, the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit held that an employer did not waive its right to challenge a regional director's authority to conduct a representation election by failing to raise the issue before the election. The regional director was selected when the panel heading the judicial functions of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) lacked a quorum required by the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA).
