Episode 29: M-01967, Kingsport TN and Arbitration C-34197. A HUGE WIN FOR THE NALC AND ESCALATED MONETARY AWARDS

Corey enthusiastically details a federal court decision (M-01967) that upholds the right of the union to seek escalated monetary awards, also referred to as punitive awards, from the USPS in cases of contract violations. The decision stems from an arbitration case in Kingsport, Tennessee, where the arbitrator awarded a substantial sum to the union due to the Postal Service's repeated contractual breaches. Corey emphasizes the importance of this decision, urging listeners to include both the M-01967 document and the Kingsport case (C-04197) in all future grievances involving escalated monetary awards. He views this legal victory as a powerful tool for the union in ensuring future contract compliance from the USPS. http://www.fromatoarbitration.com/
