Denied again - the University of California failed a second time to get a court order to stop the strike by academic workers. According to today’s Los Angeles Times:
“For the second time, the state labor board has declined to order an immediate halt to the UC academic workers strike, which has resulted in canceled classes, blocked parking garages and disrupted coursework for thousands at a crucial time of the year when students take finals. The state’s Public Employment Relations Board ruled Monday that the University of California had not met the high legal standard of causing ‘irreparable harm’ required for the labor board to approve an injunction. The walkout has included UC campuses in Santa Cruz, Davis and Los Angeles. The strike expanded Monday to UC Santa Barbara and UC San Diego and is scheduled to spread Wednesday at UC Irvine.”
