Petition for Review & Cross-Petition for Enforcement from an Order
of the National Labor Relations Board
No. 16-CB-6348
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, WIENER, and GARZA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
We review the remedial orders of back pay by the National Labor
Relations Board to ensure that the Board was not arbitrary in its selection of a
formula used to calculate back pay, NLRB v. Charley Toppino & Sons, Inc., 358
F.2d 94, 97 (5th Cir. 1966), and that the Board’s award of back pay was not
punitive, Florida Steel Corp. v. NLRB, 587 F.2d 735, 746 (5th Cir. 1979). In this
case, there is no evidence to support a claim that the Board was either arbitrary
or punitive. Based on the deferential standard of review we give to the Board’s
