Temple University Hospital, Inc. v. National Labor Relations Board
Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, No. 21-1111 · judgment July 8, 2022
Before the decision, about 2.8× the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for counsel who has won certiorari before, a D.C. Circuit decision below, and a business petitioner.
Question presented
Whether the D.C. Circuit lawfully affirmed the National Labor Relations Board’s new rule—categorically barring the application of judicial estoppel to prevent the Board from exercising jurisdiction over a labor union even where, as here, the union’s misconduct is evident and the agency’s credibility is at stake—despite the fact that the rule lacks any basis in precedent, logic or sound labor policy.
