The following excerpt is from In re Adams Delivery Service, Inc., 24 BR 589 (B.A.P. 9th Cir. 1982):
While resort to court proceedings is required for execution of the enforced order, see 29 C.F.R. 101.15 (NLRB Rules and Regulations), we find it significant that no private action arises under the Labor Act. See Amalgamated Workers v. Edison Co., 309 U.S. 261, 265, 60 S.Ct. 561, 563, 84 L.Ed. 738 (1940). Thus the NLRB is not functionally a forum where private parties may present labor disputes. Rather the NLRB determines which complaints it will act upon in its own name in furthering the policies of the federal labor laws.
