Code of Federal Regulations (alpha)

CFR /  Title 29  /  Part 452  /  Sec. 452.58 Self-nomination.

A system of self-nomination, if this is the only method for making nominations, deprives union members of a reasonable opportunity to nominate candidates and thus is inconsistent with the provisions of title IV. \34\ Self-nomination is permissible only if the members are afforded additional methods whereby they may nominate the candidates of their choice.---------------------------------------------------------------------------

\34\ See Wirtz v. National Maritime Union of America, 399 F.2d 544 (C.A. 2 1968).---------------------------------------------------------------------------
