Narrative Opinion Summary
The court reviewed the case involving Lucky Cab Company, which appealed a decision from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) that found the company engaged in unfair labor practices. These practices included threats concerning employment benefits and job security related to union support, as well as the discharge of six employees participating in union activities, violating 29 U.S.C. § 158(a)(1) and (3). The NLRB sought enforcement of its order. The court emphasized its deferential standard of review for NLRB decisions, affirming that findings supported by substantial evidence are conclusive. After reviewing the record, the court determined that substantial evidence backed the NLRB's conclusions. Consequently, Lucky Cab's petition for review was denied, and the NLRB's cross-application for enforcement was granted. The court's decision will not be published, and the issuance of the mandate is withheld for seven days to allow for any petitions for rehearing.
