There is a <HOLDING> token in the position of the citing text prompt where the holding statement was extracted.

is adverse to its interests. Lamar cites no authority establishing that either "fact" was material to determining whether City exceeded the scope of its powers by surrendering and contracting away zoning authority that would otherwise have applied to Lamar's efforts to rebuild or relocate eight of the forty-two signs identified in the Agreement. For reasons we explain, neither factual contention prevented the entry of summary judgment in favor of City as a matter of law. We have already explained that the Agreement hindered City's zoning authority, and that zoning authority is an exercise of police powers. City thus established all that was necessary to demonstrate that the Agreement exceeded the scope of City's powers in violation of section 432.070. Stewart, 165 S.W.2d at 629 (<HOLDING>).

Southern Bakeries, LLC, 786 F.3d 1119, 1125 (8th Cir. 2015) (noting the NLRB's broad remedial powers to remedy employer violations in the shape of unfair labor practices); Medallion Kitchens, Inc. v. NLRB, 811 F.2d 456, 460 (8th Cir. 1987) (observing that the NLRA affords "the Board broad .latitude in fashioning remedies for unfair labor practices"). To illustrate further, should an employer commit misconduct while she is at the bargaining table, so to speak, the NLRB may mandate the employer to reimburse the corresponding labor organization for bargaining expenses. See HTH Corp., 361 NLRB No. 65 (2014) (<HOLDING>). With respect to labor schedules and other

together is inconsistent. See U.S.S.G. 3D1.2(c). The guidelines require district courts to examine a defendant's role-in-the-offense under 3B1.1 before grouping or separating counts under 3D1.2. See U.S.S.G. IB 1.1(c) & (d) (setting forth the chronology to be followed in calculating a final offense level and requiring adjustments to be made under Part B of Chapter 3 before applying Part D of Chapter 3). Thus, when conduct from one count (or group of counts) has already been used to trigger an adjustment to another count (or group of counts), 3D1.2(c) requires all those counts to be grouped together. We have several times prohibited the grouping of fraud and money laundering counts together into a single group. See United States v. Green, 225 F.3d 955, 958-59 (8th Cir.2000) (<HOLDING>); United States v. O'Kane, 155 F.3d 969, 972-74
