PERB’s authority to seek injunctive relief under the MMBA is stated in section 3509(a), which incorporates the Board’s authority under section 3541.3(j) of the Educational Employment Relations Act (EERA) to seek temporary relief or a restraining order. Injunctive relief is appropriate where: (1) there is reasonable cause to believe that an unfair practice has been committed, and (2) the injunctive relief sought is just and proper. Absent temporary relief to restore and maintain the status quo ante, PERB’s task of adjudicating and remedying alleged unfair practices is in severe jeopardy.
