Description
The Secretary of Labor appeals from a summary judgment granted in favor of defendant, Local 480 of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen, and Helpers of America, AFL-CIO (Local 480 or union), in the Secretarys action brought under Title IV of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 (LMRDA or Act), 29 U.S.C. § 401 et seq. The Secretary sought to set aside Local 480s 1989 election of officers on the basis that employer funds had been used during the election to promote the candidacy of the incumbent president, in violation of 29 U.S.C. § 481(g). Finding that union members had not invoked available union remedies before filing their complaint with the Secretary, as required by 29 U.S.C. § 482(a)(2), the district court held that the Secretary had no authority to bring the action and, therefore, dismissed the suit.
