Petitioner alleged that the Union breached its duty of fair representation in violation of NYCCBL ยง 12-306(b)(3) by failing to appeal her suspension and neglecting to communicate its decision not to appeal. Petitioner also alleged that the Union failed to adequately represent her regarding a warning memorandum for being absent without leave.
