LA-CO-28-X
Decision Date: November 13, 2025
Decision Type: PERB Decision (Non-Precedential)
Description: Charging Party Esroruleh Mohammad filed an appeal from the dismissal of his unfair practice charge by PERB’s Office of the General Counsel (OSC). Charging Party alleged in his amended unfair practice charge that his representative, Respondent Service Employees International Union, Local 721 violated the Meyers-Milas-Brown Act by breaching the duty of fair representation. OGC issued a warning letter informing Charging Party that PERB does not have jurisdiction over unfair practice charges involving the City or County of Los Angeles, and the charge would be dismissed unless Charging Party amended the charge to add or clarify facts that would correct the deficiencies stated in the warning letter. Charging Party filed an amended charge and added the County of Los Angeles as an additional respondent alleging additional facts to support his assertion PERB should have jurisdiction over his charge. OGC evaluated the amended charge and concluded it did not cure the deficiencies stated in the warning letter. OGC dismissed the charge as to both respondents. Charging Party appealed.
Disposition: In a non-precedential decision, the Board dismissed Charging Parties amended charge without leave to amend.
