The complainant filed a duty of fair representation complaint against the union in 1984 regarding events from 1983.
After initial proceedings and adjournments in 1985, the complainant took no further steps for almost two years.
The respondent union requested that the complaint be dismissed for delay.
The Board declined to entertain the complaint due to the extreme and unexplained delay of almost two years since the last proceeding, bringing the total time elapsed since the events to almost four years.
