Allegiant Air pilots union...Posted June 8, 2015 - 11:29amAppeals court reverses lower court on Allegiant pilot rules
By SEAN WHALEY
LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL
CARSON CITY — The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday reversed a lower court ruling that had prevented Allegiant Air from changing its pilot work rules.
The reversal is a blow to the International Brotherhood of Teamsters Local 1224, which had sought to stop Allegiant from making any work rule changes until a new contract is negotiated.
The Teamsters had argued that its predecessor organization, the Allegiant Air Pilots Advocacy Group, was a labor representative under the Railway Labor Act. The Teamsters argued that the pilot work rules negotiated by the predecessor organization were a collective bargaining agreement and that a federal judge in Las Vegas properly prevented Allegiant from altering the agreement until a mandated mediation process is completed.
Allegiant argued the group was merely an informational employee advocacy group.
In a decision written by Judge Stephen Murphy, a three-judge panel found that the pilot advocacy group was not a labor representative under the Railway Labor Act because it never sought to be recognized by Allegiant as the pilots bargaining agent.
The appeals court returned the case to Las Vegas federal court to permit the Teamsters and Allegiant to continue negotiating a collective bargaining agreement.
