Outcome
The Sixth Circuit vacated the district court's summary judgment for the union and remanded the case, holding that the plaintiff's claim arising from the union's alleged failure to convey a settlement offer in August or September 2008 was timely under the continuing violation doctrine, even though the April 2008 offer claim was barred by the statute of limitations.
