Supreme Court of the United States

Decided May 28, 1962No. 464PublishedCited by 317 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Black

The Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, with Chief Judge Sobeloff dissenting, refused to enforce an order of the National Labor Relations Board directing the respondent Washington Aluminum Company to reinstate and make whole seven employees whom the company had discharged for leaving their work in the machine shop without permission on claims that the shop was too cold to work in. Because that decision raises important questions affecting the proper administration of the National Labor Relations Act, 2 we granted certiorari. 3
