Identify the non-statutory labor exemption, and explain its significance.

Question 2

Did the Court decide that the League's nonstatutory labor exemption from the antitrust laws continues even though the players decertified as a union?

Answer to Question 1

The non-statutory labor exemption was created by the Supreme Court to avoid the application of federal antitrust laws to multiemployer collective bargaining activities with union, dealing with wages, hours, and working conditions. Without this exemption, antitrust laws might apply to certain multiemployer bargaining agreements even though federal labor policy favors such bargaining.

Answer to Question 2

No. The court carefully expressed no opinion on the question of whether the League's nonstatutory labor exemption from the antitrust laws continued or terminated once the Players decertified their union.
