U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 13-1565
U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis
[PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Wollman and Loken, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Arbitration. Where the question was whether an employer
violated the National Labor Relations Act or the parties' CBA when it
terminated above-scale wages and time allowances on hybrid vehicle repair
work, the Arbitrator was "warranted" in determining the CBA's plain
language was silent on the issue of how above-scale time allowances could
be terminated; the arbitrator's award in favor of the dealers drew its
essence from the CBA, and the district court did not err in affirming it.
