Carolyn Crouthamel, et al. v. Walla Walla Public Schools, a Washington Public School District, et al.
FirstAmendment
This document is an Application for Extension of Time to File a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari, not a petition itself. It does not contain a "Question(s) Presented" section in the formal sense.
However, the application does present the substantive issues in paragraphs 2-3, which state:
Whether unions are acting under "color of law" (as so-called "state actors") when they utilize government payroll deduction systems to compel non-union public employees to pay union dues, and whether the First Amendment requires public employers to implement procedural safeguards when deducting union fees from their non-union employees' wages to ensure those employees are not being compelled to fund a union's political speech.
Whether a public sector union acts 'under color of law' for purposes of Section 1983 when compelling non-union public employees to pay dues through government payroll deduction systems
