Opinion
No. 08-1260.
July 6, 2009.
On Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan.
Ronald J. Reosti, Trial Attorney, Reosti, James Sirlin, Pleasant Ridge, MI, for Plaintiff-Appellant.
John R. Canzano, Klimist, McKnight, Sale, McClow Canzano, Southfield, MI, for Defendant-Appellee.
Before: BOGGS, Chief Judge; BATCHELDER and COOK, Circuit Judges.
Terrance Lombard appeals the decision of the district court to enter summary judgment for the UAW International Union and its Local 174 chapter. Lombard sued the defendants-appellees for breaching their duty of fair representation in a grievance against his employer, Chrome Craft Corporation. After reviewing the record, the applicable law, and the parties' briefs, we find that the district court carefully and correctly set forth the facts and the governing law. This court's issuance of a full opinion would serve no jurisprudential purpose and would be duplicative, and so we affirm the grant of summary judgment, adopting the reasoning of the district court's opinion of February 7, 2008, 2008 WL 344540.
