1628 Hendley v. Region 1

The remand of Hendley’s appeal for further investigation did not amount to a finding of fault on the part of the local union representatives. The record we have before us now demonstrates that despite the weaknesses in Hendley’s case, the union worked hard to obtain his reinstatement and sought advice from the Regional servicing representative on several occasions to try to obtain some kind of monetary settlement for him. The union fulfilled its duty to Hendley in its investigation and processing his grievance so there is no basis for an award of damages.
