Further Update information on NLRB vs. CNN/Team Video:

September 30, 2009    TVS/CNN Members,  Here's the latest on the National Labor Relations Board's Unfair Labor Practice case against CNN and Team Video Services. The filings of appeal briefs and reply briefs by attorneys representing CNN, the NLRB General Counsel, and NABET-CWA Locals 11 and 31 seems to have concluded, though with this case it's difficult to say for certain.  President Obama has nominated three attorneys to fill the vacant seats on the labor board. The nominees are Brian Hayes (Republican), Craig Becker (Democrat), and Mark Pearce (Democrat). Once confirmed by the US Senate they will join Peter Schaumber (Republican) and Board Chairperson Wilma Liebman (Democrat). The labor board majority reflects the administration's political party, so the Obama labor board will consist of three Democrats and two Republicans. It isn't known when the Senate will move to confirm the nominees. It's important to note that there is no time limit on labor board deliberations of the appeal of Administrative Law Judge Arthur Amchan's November 2008 decision and given the size and complexity of our case the process could be quite lengthy.
