Judgment: November 10, 2025

Christopher Julian Paolella Reich and Paolella LLP 111 Broadway Suite 2002 New York, NY 10006 [Petition] [Appendix]
Question(s) presentedQUESTIONS PRESENTED
  1. Whether the National Labor Relations Act permits a finding that an employer has bargained in bad faith based solely on the substance of the company’s proposals on mandatory subjects of collective bargaining, without evidence of any bad-faith behavior away from the bargain- ing table.

  2. Whether the Third Circuit’s “highly deferential” re- view of the National Labor Relations Board’s interpreta- tion of its statutory authority, which conflicts with the de- cisions of other courts of appeals, violates this Court’s holding in Loper Bright Enters. v. Raimondo, 603 U.S. 369, 412 (2024), that “[c]ourts must exercise their inde- pendent judgment in deciding whether an agency has acted within its statutory authority.”

  3. Whether the National Labor Relations Board has the statutory or constitutional authority to order an em- ployer to pay consequential damages that employees incur as a result of an unfair labor practice.
