A quick definition of Lingle test:

Term: Lingle Test

Definition: The Lingle Test is a way to determine if a union member's state-law claim against their employer is affected by the Labor-Management Relations Act. If the state-law claim can be resolved without interpreting the collective-bargaining agreement, then there is no preemption. This means that the state law can still be enforced. The Lingle Test was established in the case of Lingle v. Norge Division of Magic Chef, Inc. in 1988.

Related terms: Marcus Model, White Model

A more thorough explanation:

The Lingle test is a legal principle used in labor law to determine whether a union member's state-law claim against their employer is preempted by the Labor-Management Relations Act.

The Lingle test states that if the state-law claim can be resolved without interpreting the collective-bargaining agreement, then there is no preemption.

For example, if a union member files a state-law claim against their employer for violating minimum wage laws, and the claim can be resolved by simply looking at the state's minimum wage laws without interpreting the collective-bargaining agreement, then the Lingle test would not apply and the claim would not be preempted.

The Lingle test was established in the case of Lingle v. Norge Division of Magic Chef, Inc. in 1988.

Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years

I mean if Fordham doesn't release today I will purposefully get on a train, go to new york, and then take the stinkiest shit inside the admission office's toilet (potentially clogging it and forcing them to get a plumber)
