2128-00-G The United Association of Journeymen and Apprentices of the Plumbing and Pipe Fitting Industry of the United States and Canada, Local 46, Applicant v. Associated Mechanical Trades Inc., Responding Party.
BEFORE: John Morgan Lewis, Vice‑Chair, and Board Members G. Pickell and A. Haward.
DECISION OF THE BOARD; October 30, 2000
Having regard to the agreement of the parties, the Board hereby adjourns this application sine die for a period not exceeding one year. Unless within that time either party requests that the Board proceed with the matter, it will be deemed terminated without any further notice to the parties.
The Board notes that the responding party has failed to file a Notice of Intent to Defend (Form A-87). In its application, the applicant had asked the Board, in the event of a failure to file such a Notice, to determine of the referral with reference only to the material filed by the applicant. In light of the agreement to adjourn, the Board will not act on this request at the present time.
However, if the applicant requests that this matter be relisted, the responding party is directed to file its Notice of Intent to Defend within five working days of the date of the registrar’s Notice of Hearing. If the responding party fails to do so, and the applicant renews its request that the Board proceed under rule 160, either when it asks for the matter to be relisted or otherwise, the Board will act on the applicant’s request for a decision.
“John Morgan Lewis”
for the Board
