Another one of our lawyers has been profiled in a “Q&A” Session with Law 360. This time, the discussion was with yours truly, Evan Pontz, and it appears today in Law 360. Notably, it includes further conversation about the NLRB and its status in light of the Noel Canning decision holding that the President’s recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board were invalid. As we noted in recent posts, the decision leaves a year-plus of NLRB decisions in limbo, and ultimately may require the U.S. Supreme Court to weigh in. The case has now been appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, but the Court has not yet decided whether it will hear the case.
Enjoy the Q&A session which also covers thoughts on reforming wage and hour litigation, one of my most interesting cases, another lawyer (now judge) who greatly influenced me, and what I learned from a mistake early in my career.
