  • Narricot Indus., LP v. NLRB (U.S. 4th Cir.) - Petitioner's request for review of a decision of the NLRB (Board), arising from allegations of various unfair labor practice charges, is denied where: 1) the Board decision was properly issued by a two-member quorum pursuant to 29 U.S.C. section 153(b); and 2) the Board's decision is enforceable on the merits.
  • In re Pharm. Indus. Average Wholesale Price Litig. (U.S. 1st Cir.) - Approval of a settlement in a class action lawsuit involving claims that AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals published artificially inflated prescription drug prices is affirmed where: 1) district court did not abuse its discretion by finding the settlement provision creating a cy pres fund was fair, adequate, and reasonable; 2) plaintiff's objection to class counsel allegedly negotiating attorneys' fees with the settlement is waived; 3) district court satisfied the requirements of Rule 23(c)(1)(B); and 4) plaintiff's argument that the district court did not properly certify class counsel under Rule 23(g) is waived.
  • EEOC v. United Parcel Serv., Inc. (U.S. 2d Cir.) - In the EEOC's appeal from a denial of its petition to enforce an administrative subpoena issued to UPS seeking information about how religious exemptions to UPS's Uniform and Personal Appearance Guidelines were handled nationwide, the order is reversed where the district court, in finding that national information was not relevant to the charges being investigated by the EEOC, applied too restrictive a standard of relevance.
