Halstead Metal Products v. National Labor Relations Board

OPINION

CHAPMAN, Senior Circuit Judge:

Donald Hazelwood (“Hazelwood”) filed an unfair labor practice complaint with the National Labor Relations Board (“Board”) against Halstead Metal Products (“Hal-stead”), claiming that Halstead refused to rehire him because he had engaged in protected concerted activity. The Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) concluded that Halstead had committed an unfair labor practice under the National Labor Relations Act (the “Act”), and the Board affirmed the decision. Halstead now appeals, and we reverse and remand for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
