Final orders of the board made pursuant to this article shall be conclusive against all parties to its proceedings and persons who have had an opportunity to be parties to its proceedings unless reversed or modified in proceedings for enforcement or judicial review as hereinafter provided. Final orders shall be (i) reviewable under article seventy-eight of the civil practice law and rules upon petition filed by an aggrieved party within thirty days after service by registered or certified mail of a copy of such order upon such party, and(ii)
enforceable in a special proceeding, upon petition of such board, by the supreme court, provided, however, that an order of the board which determines whether an employer or employee is subject to this article may be deemed final when made.(b)
Orders of the board or its agents made pursuant to subdivisions one and two of § 207 (Determination of representation status)section two hundred seven of this chapter shall be reviewable only in a proceeding brought under article seventy-eight of the civil practice law and rules to review an order of the board made pursuant to subdivision three of § 207 (Determination of representation status)section two hundred seven of this chapter.(c)
If a proceeding by the board for enforcement of its order is instituted prior to the expiration of the period within which a party may seek judicial review of such order, the respondent may raise in his answer the questions authorized to be raised by Civil Practice Law & Rules Law § 7803 (Questions raised)section seven thousand eight hundred three of the civil practice law and rules and thereafter the proceedings shall be governed by the provisions of article seventy-eight of the civil practice law and rules that are not inconsistent herewith, except that if an issue specified in question four of Civil Practice Law & Rules Law § 7803 (Questions raised)section seven thousand eight hundred three of the civil practice law and rules is raised, the proceeding shall be transferred for disposition to the appellate division of the supreme court. Where an issue specified in question four of Civil Practice Law & Rules Law § 7803 (Questions raised)section seven thousand eight hundred three of the civil practice law and rules is raised, either in a proceeding to enforce or review an order of the board, the appellate division of the supreme court, upon completion of proceedings before it, shall remit a copy of its judgment or order to the court in which the proceeding was commenced, which court shall have the power to compel compliance with such judgment or order.(d)
In a proceeding to enforce or review an order of the board, the court shall have power to grant such temporary relief or restraining order as it deems just and proper, and to make and enter a judgment or decree enforcing, modifying and enforcing as so modified, or setting aside in whole or in part the order of the board.(e)
The failure to perform the duties required by subdivisions two and three of § 210 (Prohibition of strikes)section two hundred ten of this chapter and by § 211 (Application for injunctive relief)section two hundred eleven of this chapter shall be reviewable in a proceeding under article seventy-eight of the civil practice law and rules by any taxpayer, as defined in § 102 (Court proceedings)section one hundred two of this chapter.
