Outcome
The court granted AT&T's petition for review and vacated the NLRB's decision, ruling that AT&T lawfully prohibited employees from wearing union shirts depicting inmates and prisoners because the shirts could reasonably harm customer relations and the company's public image under the 'special circumstances' exception to Section 7 of the NLRA.
