Employer's unfair labour practice complaint and prosecution application dismissed as frivolous, vexatious, and an abuse of process.
The employer filed an unfair labour practice complaint and an application for consent to prosecute the union and its counsel, alleging they misled an arbitrator to obtain an adjournment.
The employer sought to consolidate these matters with earlier complaints filed by the union.
The Board refused consolidation, noting the matters were discrete and consolidation would conflict with the union counsel's role.
The Board then dismissed the employer's complaint and application without a full hearing, finding them to be frivolous, vexatious, and an abuse of process designed to harass the union and gain a tactical advantage in other pending matters.
