And . . . we're done.

Wash. Super. Union v. Cabot Teachers' Ass'n, 2018 VT 24 (mem.)

By Andrew Delaney

This is my favorite kind of opinion to summarize—one paragraph long. The Board of School Directors of Washington Northeast Supervisory Union appeals the Labor Relations Board conclusion that the Cabot Teachers’ Association didn’t commit an unfair labor practice by declining to engage in collective bargaining in a public session.

Because SCOV issued another opinion today that resolves the whole negotiating-sessions-are-subject-to-public-meeting-requirements argument (based on this one-paragraph opinion, I’m guessing that’s a no), the Labor Relations Board’s decision is affirmed.

And we're done . . . for now. Stay tuned for the actual opinion that dictated this one.
