NOTICE: Sixth Circuit Rule 24(c) states that citation of unpublished dispositions is disfavored except for establishing res judicata, estoppel, or the law of the case and requires service of copies of cited unpublished dispositions of the Sixth Circuit.NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD, Petitioner,v.BROCKMAN FORKLIFT, INC., Respondent.
No. 92-6328.
United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.
April 1, 1993.

Before NORRIS and SILER, Circuit Judges, and BROWN, Senior Circuit Judge.


1
The National Labor Relations Board (the "Board") applies for the summary enforcement of its decision and order dated April 7, 1992, in Case Nos. 7-CA-31288 and 7-CA-31395(3) in which it found the respondent violated federal labor law by refusing to bargain over an initial contract with a certified union and by laying off six employees without notice to and bargaining with the union.   The Board states it is entitled to summary enforcement because the respondent waived its right to challenge the decision and order by withdrawing its exceptions to the administrative law judge's decision recommending entry thereof.   The respondent opposes entry of summary enforcement on grounds the Board has given a new interpretation to the remedial backpay provisions of the decision and order, therefore rendering that order vague and unenforceable.


2
We agree with the Board that its decision and order is entitled to summary enforcement at this time.   Although the respondent questions the interpretation of the Board's decision and order as it pertains to the payment of backpay, that is an issue of compliance that may be considered by the Board in future proceedings or by this court in any contempt proceeding that may arise from the Board's decision and order.   See NLRB v. Ohmite Mfg. Co., 557 F.2d 577, 579 n. 5 (6th Cir.1977) (per curiam).


3
It therefore is ORDERED that the Board's application for summary enforcement of the above decision and order is granted.   The respondent, Brockman Forklift, Inc., Detroit, Michigan, its officers, agents, successors, and assigns, shall:

1. Cease and desist from:

4
(a) Refusing to recognize and bargain with Local 324, International Union of Operating Engineers, AFL-CIO (hereinafter called the Union) as the exclusive bargaining representative of the employees in the following appropriate unit:

6
(b) Unilaterally laying off employees without providing the Union with notice and opportunity to bargain about the decision to layoff the employees and the effects of that decision.
