Section 1200.100  Transfer of Jurisdiction

a)         Whenever a proceeding is instituted before either the State or Local Panel of the Illinois Labor Relations Board and it appears that the matter is properly subject to the other Panel's jurisdiction, the first Panel shall transfer the case to the other Panel.

b)         Whenever one Panel has transferred a case to the other Panel, the other Panel can refuse to accept the transfer if it believes that it does not have jurisdiction.  The other Panel's refusal to accept the transfer shall automatically initiate the scheduling of a joint meeting of the State and Local Panels to resolve the jurisdictional issue.

c)         Whenever only one member of either Panel believes that a case before that Panel is subject to the jurisdiction of the other Panel, that member shall initiate a joint Panel proceeding to resolve the jurisdictional issue.
