122229P.pdf 07/02/2013 Midwest Division - LSH, LLC v. Nurses United For Improved Pat
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 12-2229
U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Riley, Chief Judge, and Shepherd, Circuit
Judge]
Civil case - Labor law. Arbitrator's order finding employer lacked just
cause to terminate the nurse in question and directing reinstatement with
backpay is affirmed as the decision was within the arbitrator's authority
and there is no basis to conclude the arbitrator's exercise of his
remedial authority failed to draw its essence from the Collective
Bargaining Agreement; NLRB decertification of the union did not nullify
the pending grievance and arbitration proceedings
