Question presented
Did The Hotel and Motel Trades Council, Violate the Constitution of The United States of America, by not allowing Mr Scales the plaintiff, freedom of speech. Did the Hotel and Motel Trades Council, exhibit fair representation and fair business practices? Should the Hotel and Motel Trades Council, be allowed to terminate existing contracts without warning or any forms of protocols, upon entering a job site and becoming the active bargaining Union for employee's, and do they have a legal obligation to notify these employee’s of their privilege and intentions, prior to becoming the active bargaining Union for the employees's? Was the decision of the Arbitrator misinterpreted by Judge John p Cronan, and was the Arbitrator fully concise about all of information pertaining to the Arbitration of The Hotel and Motel Trades Council v Ace Hotel NY? Should the Arbitration of The Hotel and Motel Trades Council versus Ace Hotel NY, be upheld as if it was The plaintiff William Scales versus either of the participating parties Ace Hotel Ny or The Hotel Trades Council? Are newly hired employees provided the privilege and option, of selecting between an employer provided retirement plan and a Union provided retirement plan?
