Abstract
During certain instances of union activity, union organizers may appear to break the law. The common reaction of employers is to call the police. After all, if you saw someone you believed was breaking the law elsewhere, would that not be the expected response? When it comes to labor law, however, rushing to call for assistance from law enforcement can backfire. A recent decision in Starbucks Corporation, Case No. 03-CA-329453 (JD-29-25, April 3, 2025) is an illustrative example.
