Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate: the model weighted this down for a self-represented petitioner.

Questions presented

  1. Whether the court erred by ruling that a union member’s duty of fair representation claim, filed two months after the union’s withdrawal of his 19-year-old grievance, was untimely.
