On April 17, 2012 the Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit paralyzed the requirement of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to set a sign that would inform employees of their rights to organize and form a union, inter alia. The order prohibits the Board to enforce the notification rule until further notice. The case questions the validity of the Board to order employers to put the poster. The dispute continues and is designated a hearing in September 2012. Since the Board shall take no action until the case is decided, it is necessary to put the poster unless ordered by the Court when the case is finally decided.
