Marcus model

Read a random definition: implied license by acquiescence

A quick definition of Marcus model:

The Marcus Model is a way to figure out if a union member's state-law claim against their employer is affected by federal law. It looks at whether the state-law claim can be resolved without interpreting the collective-bargaining agreement. If it can be resolved separately, then it is not affected by federal law. This model is named after the person who proposed it, Stephanie R. Marcus.

A more thorough explanation:

The Marcus Model is a method used in labor law to determine whether a union member's state-law claim against their employer is preempted by federal law. This means that the federal law takes precedence over state law in certain situations. The Marcus Model focuses on whether the state-law claim can be maintained independently of an interpretation of the collective-bargaining agreement.

For example, if a union member files a state-law retaliatory-discharge claim against their employer, the Marcus Model would be used to determine whether this claim is preempted by federal law. If the claim can be resolved without interpreting the collective-bargaining agreement, it is not preempted by federal law.

There are at least two models for applying the Marcus Model: the White Model and the Marcus Model. The White Model focuses on whether the claim is negotiable or nonnegotiable, while the Marcus Model focuses on the independence of the claim in relation to the collective-bargaining agreement.

The Marcus Model is named after Stephanie R. Marcus, who proposed the model in a law-review note in 1989.

Winter is tattoo season because you are less likely to be in the sun exposing the healng tattoos, you dont go swimming or tanning in winter either so you don't miss out on the fun stuff of summer

@snow: healing is super easy it takes like a week to get through the bad part but being in the sun or going in water is a no no so if you get it in the summer that is two weeks at least of no summer fun while winter it doesnt matter
