Douglas Quoted on S&F Market Street Healthcare v. NLRB

Foley Partner John Douglas was quoted in an article that appeared on Employment Law360 on July 1, 2009 titled “NLRB Erred In Nursing Home Case Ruling: DC Circ.” Douglas speaks on a federal appeals court decision that denied enforcement of a National Labor Relations Board ruling barring S&F Market Street Healthcare from implementing new terms and conditions for employment workers after the company purchased a California nursing home. Douglas, who represented S&F, said that the ruling marks a return to the letter of a previous Supreme Court decision that made it clear that a purchaser of assets of a unionized company or facility has the right to set initial terms and conditions of employment.
