1605 Lartigue, et al. v. IEB

The evidence in the record is not sufficient to meet the very high burden of establishing that the vote to ratify the MGM Grand contract should be rejected. Nevertheless, the UAW’s arrangement with the other unions representing casino employees does not in any way diminish the rights of UAW members under Article 19, §3, of the UAW Constitution and under the Ethical Practices Codes. There was enough evidence of irregular practices and/or misconduct during the ratification vote on the MGM Grand contract to establish the need for a process going forward to address similar concerns.
