Case: Labor Relations/Secondary Boycott (N.L.R.B.)

The display of a banner and inflatable rat by a union across the street from a neutral employer that was doing business with the targeted employer was not considered an unlawful secondary boycott. The NLRB ruled that the banner and visual display were placed on public property, and there was no picketing or other coercive conduct against the neutral employer that would be forbidden under the NLRA.
