National Labor Relations Board Had First Crack at Collective Bargaining Agreement Matter Under Preemption Doctrine

The Fourth Department determined the National Labor Relations Board, under the doctrine of federal preemption of state law, had first crack at determining whether it had jurisdiction over a collective bargaining matter, as opposed to the NYS Public Employment Relations Board (PERB):

We agree with petitioners, however, that Supreme Court erred in determining that PERB properly exercised jurisdiction over those matters.    Inasmuch as the two collective bargaining matters “arguably” fall within the scope of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA)…, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has primary jurisdiction “to determine in the first instance” whether its jurisdiction preempts PERB’s jurisdiction …..  Under the circumstances of this case, and in the interest of judicial economy, we hold the case pending a determination of the NLRB whether the NLRA applies to the collective bargaining matters herein at issue and thus preempts PERB’s jurisdiction… . Buffalo United Charter School, et al v NYS Public Employment Relations Board, et al, 515, 4th Dept, 6-7-13
