Definitions from Case Law

From 340 U.S. 361 - National Labor Relations Board v. Gullett Gin Co. · 1951Most cited · 781 citing opinions

Since no consideration has been given or should be given to collateral losses in framing an order to reimburse employees for their lost earnings, manifestly no consideration need be given to collateral benefits which employees may have received. Payments of unemployment compensation were not made to the employees by respondent but by the state out of state funds derived from taxation... the payments to the employees were not made to discharge any liability or obligation of respondent, but to carry out a policy of social betterment for the benefit of the entire state.
