ORDER1
The Employer’s petition to revoke subpoena duces tecum B-578975 is denied.
The subpoena seeks information relevant to the matter under investigation and
describes with sufficient particularity the evidence sought, as required by Section 11(1)
of the Act and Section 102.31(b) of the Board’s Rules and Regulations. Further, the
Employer has failed to establish any other legal basis for revoking the subpoena. See
generally NLRB v. North Bay Plumbing, Inc., 102 F.3d 1005 (9th Cir. 1996); NLRB v.
Carolina Food Processors, Inc., 81 F.3d 507 (4th Cir. 1996). In addition, the Employer’s
request for a protective order is denied. The Employer has failed to show good cause
for such an order.2

1 The National Labor Relations Board has delegated its authority in this proceeding to a
three-member panel.
2 The Employer has at this time failed to substantiate the need for any order ensuring
the confidentiality of the requested information. However, if its concerns can be
substantiated at a later time, the Employer may again request, and, in its discretion, the
Region may enter into, a confidentiality agreement protecting the information from
disclosure during the investigative phase of this case.
