161653P.pdf 05/08/2017 Michael Sullivan v. Endeavor Air, Inc.
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 16-1653
U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis
[PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Beam and Murphy, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Arbitration. The district court did not err in denying
Sullivan's petition to vacate an arbitration award issued by a System
Board of Adjustment pursuant to the Railway Labor Act, 45 U.S.C. Sec. 151,
et seq; Sullivan's procedural due process claim is without merit; claim
that Sullivan's termination violated public policy was an improper attempt
to argue the merits of the Board's decision, as was his challenge to the
Board's determination that his conduct violated the employer's
anti-harassment policy; nothing in the CBA required progressive discipline
and the Board properly applied the CBA.
