International to pay legal costs on constitutional challenge December 2003 On The Level
10-b settlement reached
After several weeks of negotiations with the International’s legal counsel Randall Hordo, the UBCJA has agreed to pay costs of $60,000 to the BC Provincial Council of Carpenters for the court case they lost attempting to seize the council books.
This fall, the BC Provincial Council applied to the courts for its costs and expects to receive the cheque in the very near future.
In Madame Justice Brown’s judgement on the International’s attempt to enforce Section 10B of the UBCJA constitution and take over the Provincial Council books in June of 2000, she characterized General President McCarron’s actions as being in bad faith and the British Columbia membership as being “adamantly opposed to McCarron’s plans for restructuring.” This opposition was clearly reinforced with the recent referendum result of 83 per cent in favour of transferring affiliation to a Canadian body.------------------------------------------- posted 10:16 AM :: reference link ::
