Emergency application
Union recognition rules
CEMEx Construction Materials Pacific, LLC v. National Labor Relations Board
What did the Court do?
The Court denied the request on September 4, 2026: the lower court's ruling stays in effect while the appeal continues.
Emergency rulings are temporary and do not decide the underlying case.
What's being asked
CEMEX, a building-materials company, asks the Court to pause the Ninth Circuit's mandate, the order making its ruling effective, while seeking Supreme Court review. The Ninth Circuit rejected CEMEX's challenge to a National Labor Relations Board decision involving the Teamsters union; the record does not explain the dispute.
What the Court did
The Court refused CEMEX's request to pause the Ninth Circuit's mandate and denied the application (turned it down). The order does not decide who wins the underlying dispute; the Court did not publish how the justices voted.
What it means
This emergency ruling concerns only a temporary pause of the Ninth Circuit's mandate, not who wins the underlying dispute. The Ninth Circuit's ruling remains in effect; no related Supreme Court case or argument is listed.
