| A403M | City of Fremont 1305.01000: REPRESENTATION ISSUES; ORGANIZATIONAL SECURITY RESCISSION ELECTION; In General In the absence of local rules, agency fee rescission petitions under the MMBA are governed by section 3502.5(d) and PERB Regulations 61000 and 61600 et seq. Once the Office of the General Counsel has conducted its investigation of threshold issues concerning a rescission election and issued an administrative decision containing a statement of issues, fact, law and rationale, such decision may be appealed to the Board itself under PERB Regulation 32360, pursuant to PERB Regulation 61060. Under PERB Regulation 32370, which provides, in pertinent part, that “[t]he Board may stay the matter, except as is otherwise provided in these regulations,” the question of whether a rescission election should be stayed is “otherwise provided in these regulations,” i.e., by PERB Regulation 61190, under which the issue whether to stay a rescission election should be investigated and decided by the Office of the General Counsel. A request for the Board itself to decide a stay of a rescission election is premature when the Office of the General Counsel has yet to investigate whether the election should be blocked pursuant to PERB Regulation 61190, as well as whether the petition was timely filed, both of which determinations may be appealed to the Board under PERB Regulation 32360. An interlocutory order, governed by PERB Regulation 32200, contemplates an appeal from a board agent ruling made in the course of a hearing, not a letter by the Office of the General Counsel determining the sufficiency of the proof of employee support for a rescission election and ordering that such an election to be conducted. PERB treats Board agents’ determinations regarding rescission elections as administrative decisions under PERB Regulation 32350, and therefore subject to appeal under PERB Regulation 32360. more or view all topics or full text. | 38 | 87 | 11/21/13 |

| A047E | Lemoore Union High School District 1305.01000: REPRESENTATION ISSUES; ORGANIZATIONAL SECURITY RESCISSION ELECTION; In General Appeal of regional director's order of election for rescission of organizational security arrangement denied where petition for election was timely and accompanied by sufficient signatures; p. 1. PERB Regulation 34020(b)(5) requires that petition for rescission of organizational security clause include language of the clause sought to be rescinded; to avoid confusion on what clause is being voted on, text of the submitted clause appears on each ballot; p. 5. Pending superior court actions which could result in a finding that organizational security clause, which is the subject of a petition for a rescission election, is unenforceable, do not require PERB to cancel or delay rescission election, as to do so would be to render an advisory opinion that such a clause does not constitute an organizational security arrangement "in effect" under EERA 3546(b), as no judgement has yet been rendered by the court; p. 6. organizational security arrangement "in effect" under EERA 3546(b), as no judgement has yet been rendered by the court; p. 6. more or view all topics or full text. | 2 | 2199 | 09/22/78 |
