On July 20, 2021, District Judge Gloria M. Navarro of the United States District Court of the District of Nevada issued an injunction requiring Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa, among other things, to bargain with Local Joint Executive Board of Las Vegas as the representative of a unit of over 1,300 of its food and beverage and hotel operations employees.

The injunction was issued based on a petition for temporary injunctive relief filed by Cornele A. Overstreet, Regional Director of Region 28 of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), on behalf of the NLRB, pursuant to Section 10(j) of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). The petition alleged that Red Rock engaged in unfair labor practices “so serious and substantial in character” that a fair election cannot be held.  Therefore, it argued that employees’ past signing of cards authorizing the union to represent them is the best measure of whether they wish to be represented by the union.
