New Process Steel decided

Hot off the presses (what and odd anachronism), the Supreme Court has rejected the Board's authority to issue 2-member decisions. New Process Steel, L.P. v. NLRB, No. 08–1457. Argued March 23, 2010—Decided June 17, 2010.  I wont have time until later to digest the opinion by Justice Stevens, but the 5-4 decision does create a backlog of now undecided cases. More about this later.
