Outcome

Court of Appeals affirmed PERC's finding that both Lincoln County and Teamsters Local 690 committed unfair labor practices by refusing to bargain on mandatory subjects unless the other agreed to their preferred bargaining procedure (public vs. private). However, the court reversed PERC's application of the status quo doctrine to bargaining procedures and remanded for appropriate relief, holding that procedures are permissive subjects of bargaining.
