The Supreme Court sided with Starbucks in a case related to a labor dispute, setting stricter standards for the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to obtain court orders during union organizing campaigns. The decision requires a higher threshold to be met for issuing court orders, rejecting a rule previously applied by some courts. Starbucks stated the importance of consistent federal standards, while the union representing the workers criticized the ruling. The case began when Starbucks fired seven workers trying to unionize, leading to a court order for them to be rehired, and eventually reaching the Supreme Court.
