The National Labor Relations Board (the "Board") applies for summary enforcement of its April 28, 1995, decision and order in Case Nos. 7-CB-7625, 7-CB-8144, 7-CB-9636, 7-CB-9643, 7-CB-9704, 7-CB-9827, and 7-CB-9877 in which it found the respondent violated federal labor law and directed the respondent to take certain remedial steps stated therein. The respondent filed an answer to the original consolidated amended complaint before the Board, but withdrew that answer insofar as it pertained to the subject matter of the above Board order. It did not file an answer to a second amended complaint or otherwise appear before the Board to challenge that complaint. The respondent likewise has not filed an answer to the Board's present petition before this court. Under these circumstances, we conclude the Board is entitled to the relief it presently seeks. See 29 U.S.C. § 160(e) ("No objection that has not been urged before the Board, its member, agent, or agency, shall be considered by the court, unless the failure or neglect to urge such objection shall be excused because of extraordinary circumstances.")

It therefore is ORDERED that the Board's April 28, 1995, decision and order in Case Nos. 7-CB-7625, 7-CB-8144, 7-CB-9636, 7-CB-9643, 7-CB-9704, 7-CB-9827, and 7-CB-9877 is hereby enforced. The respondent, its officers, agents, and representatives, shall:

(a) Failing to represent a unit employee, including by a prolonged delay or refusing to arbitrate a grievance over a discharge or layoff, because the employee has filed prior Board unfair labor practice charges or engaged in other internal union activities protected by the National Labor Relation Act (the "Act") or to discharge the employee from all such activities.

(b) Failing and refusing to make available to unit employees copies of its collective bargaining agreements with employers, which agreements contain rates of pay and other terms and conditions of employment of these unit employees.

(c) Failing and refusing to provide unit employees with referral information on request as it pertains to all agreements and practices where the respondent operates an exclusive referral system.

(d) Threatening employees that it will refuse to refer them to jobs because they support a rival candidate for election to internal union office.

(e) Impliedly threatening employees to refuse to refer them to jobs by telling them to seek employment from a rival candidate whom the employees supported in the internal union election.

(f) Maintaining a local union rule under which employee-members who file allegedly "frivolous" unfair labor practice charges with the Board without first exhausting internal union constitutional remedies may be sued by the respondent for the attorney and/or litigation costs of the respondent's defense against the Board charges.

(g) Threatening to file civil law suits against employees because the employees had filed Board charges against the respondent and in retaliation for the employees' internal union activities protected by Section 7 of the Act.

(h) In any like or related manner restraining or coercing employees in the exercise of the rights guaranteed them by Section 7 of the Act.

2. Take the following affirmative action which the Board has found necessary to effectuate the policies of the Act:

(a) Request that employers Frederick Employment Services, Inc.
