204.7 Application for injunctive relief.
(a) Filing of application.
A party filing an improper practice charge pursuant to Part 204 of this Chapter may apply to the board for injunctive relief pursuant to section 209-a.4 of the act by filing with the office of counsel at the board's Albany office either by electronic mail, or by filing an original and two copies of a signed application for injunctive relief. An application filed by mail or overnight delivery service shall be filed in an envelope or container prominently bearing the legend "INJUNCTIVE RELIEF APPLICATION" in capital letters on its front. An application that is filed by electronic mail at an address designated by the board for such purpose and published on the agency’s website shall state in the subject line “APPLICATION FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.”
(b) Application form.
The application shall be filed on a form prescribed by the board which shall give notice of the right to respond pursuant to section 204.8 of this Part. The application form shall include the following:
(1) the name, address, telephone number, electronic mail address, fax number, and affiliation, if any, of the charging party;
(2) the name, title, address, telephone number, electronic mail address, and fax number of any representative filing the application on behalf of the charging party;
(3) the name, title, address, telephone number, electronic mail address, and fax number of any attorney or other representative who will represent the charging party during the processing of the application, if different from the representative named in response to paragraph (2) of this subdivision;
(4) the name, address, electronic mail address if known, and telephone number of any public employer or employee organization named as a party to the improper practice charge;
(5) the date when the improper practice charge was filed; and
(6) the case number of the improper practice charge, if available.
(c) Additional contents of application.
The charging party shall attach to the application form the following documents:
(1) a copy of the improper practice charge;
(2) an affidavit or affidavits stating, in a clear and concise manner:
(i) those facts personally known to the deponent that constitute the alleged improper practice, the date of the alleged improper practice, the alleged injury, loss, or damage arising from it, and the date when the alleged injury, loss, or damage occurred or will occur; and
(ii) why the alleged injury, loss, or damage is immediate, irreparable, and will render a resulting judgement on the merits of the improper practice charge ineffectual if injunctive relief is not granted by the court, and why there is a need to maintain or return to the status quo in order for the board to provide meaningful relief. If filed electronically, the affidavit or affidavits shall be in searchable format and shall not be scanned copies of the original documents;
(3) copies of any documentary evidence in support of the application;
(4) proof that a copy of the completed application for injunctive relief and all supporting documents was delivered to the respondent’s chief legal officer in an envelope bearing the legend “ATTENTION: CHIEF LEGAL OFFICER” in capital letters on its front, and the method and date that such delivery was made, and proof of service on all other parties to the charge. If delivery to the respondent’s chief legal officer is not by electronic mail or personal service, proof of delivery must establish when the respondent’s chief legal officer actually received the completed application and all supporting documents. Delivery by facsimile or by electronic mail will not be accepted, unless the charging party provides a written acknowledgment from the respondent’s chief legal officer that such officer accepts delivery by that means, and when such officer received the completed application and all supporting documents; and
(5) charging party may file, at its option, a memorandum of law in support of the application for injunctive relief. If filed electronically, the application for injunctive relief shall be in searchable format and shall not be scanned copies of the original documents.
