What happens during an illegal strike or lockout?
Strikes and lockouts are prohibited if they occur before the steps set out above have been taken. Any party alleging an unlawful strike or lockout can ask the Board to hold a hearing on short notice. If the strike or lockout is unlawful, the Board will order that it stop. It may also make other remedial orders. A Board order may be filed by the Board with the Clerk of the Court and is then enforceable as a judgment of the court. It is contempt of court to knowingly violate a court order.
