800.00000 – UNION UNFAIR PRACTICES; DUTY OF FAIR REPRESENTATION
800.04000 – Scope of Duty; Internal Union Affairs

A union does not owe a duty of fair representation in a forum over which it does not exclusively control the means to a particular remedy. Therefore, objections to a draft settlement agreement for a matter pending before the SPB and allegations that the union failed to adequately represent charging party before the SPB do not demonstrate a breach of the duty of fair representation.
