PERB Topic Index

The PERB Topic Index is organized by subject matter with each topic being assigned a topical number. For example, the topic “PERB: Operation, Jurisdiction, Authority; Operation of EERA, Dills (SEERA), HEERA – In General” is number 100.01000. For each Board decision, as well as a small number of important court decisions, brief summary statements (or headnotes) have been developed for each topic that the decision addressed.

The PERB Decision Search Engine allows searches of these headnotes in any of three ways: The user may simply browse the topic index and pull up all headnotes entered under a topic; or do a word search of the index; or do a word search of the headnotes themselves.Each headnote identifies the decision it summarizes by the decision number. A number which has no preceding letter refers to the PERB Decision of that number. The preceding letter “A” refers to an administrative appeal decision; the letter “I” refers to an injunctive relief decision; the letter “J” refers to a judicial review decision; the letter “C” refers to a court decision; and the letter “M” refers to a court decision under MMBA.

Please note that PERB does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the index. For this reason, the PERB Decision Search Engine should be used as an aid in legal research only. The citations and holdings of the cases summarized herein should be checked for accuracy before they are used in legal documents.
