Decision Date: October 14, 2020

Description:  Board granted in part and denied in part employers’ request to reconsider its decision certifying union at three charter schools. The Board concluded that the majority of the request was improper because it sought to relitigate legal questions that had already been decided. However the Board amended the certification at one school because it included a classification that was not listed in the petition. The Board also denied the union’s request for attorney fees.

Disposition:  Board issued an amended certification and otherwise denied the request for reconsideration.
