Heading: Holding Up Registration of Casuals Until Class B

Text: 8 Longshoremen were Advanced to Class A Status 9 Prior to the July 22, 1992 cutoff for the statute of limitations, the labor union, ILWU, appeared to require the advancement of twenty-five Class B longshoreman to Class A status before there could be any registration of casuals to Class B status. However, after July 22, 1992, none of the minutes of the union-management meetings revealed any such demand by ILWU. 10 The cases cited by Appellants do not support the position that they are entitled to present evidence of events predating July 22, 1992, as proof of a continuing breach of duty of fair representation. Once ILWU ceased demanding the advancement to Class A after July 22, 1992, it was no longer holding up registration of casuals, and was no longer breaching the duty of fair representation.
