Federal Appeals court upholds $1.57 million judgment against NUHW, Sal Rosselli and other union officials
The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth District upheld a $1.57 million judgment today against the National Union of Healthcare Workers, its President Sal Rosselli, and other former union officials in a scathing and at times contemptuous decision that finds the defendants improperly diverted union resources to their own use, stole documents and equipment, lied repeatedly to SEIU-UHW members and the court, and set out to undermine their own union and its members in order to form a rival organization.
A federal appeals court has affirmed a judgment and sentence for a Missouri man convicted of weapons charges after he was arrested in a federal sweep last year.
