Description
Before CLARK, HINCKS and KAUFMAN, Circuit Judges. Per Curiam: When the petitioner's employees in an appropriate unit of production and maintenance employees and truck drivers by secret election chose the local union here involved as its bargaining representative, petitioner put all authority for the conduct of collective bargaining negotiations in the hands of a newly engaged attorney, unskilled, as he himself conceded, in labor matters. As the trial examiner and the Board found on adequate evidence, the attorney then proceeded to condition all negotiations upon the acceptance of terms which no ""self-respecting union"" could brook. These proceedings followed, including a hearing for the taking of testimony before a trial examiner, where the attorney, contrary to Canon 19 of the A. B. A. Canons of Professional Ethics, filled the dual role of counsel and witness for his client. The Board on recommendation of the examiner found the petitioner guilty of unfair labor practices and entered a comparatively mild order that it cease and desist from refusing to bargain collectively with the Union. Petitioner seeks review of this order, and the Board asks for its enforcement.
