The Atlantic Legal Foundation is a nonprofit, nonpartisan public interest law firm with a demonstrable history of advancing the rule of law in courts and before administrative agencies by advocating for individual liberty, school choice, free enterprise, limited, effective government, and sound science in the courtroom. Atlantic Legal provides effective and decisive legal representation, without fee, to parents, scientists, educators, and other individuals, corporations and trade associations.
Atlantic Legal's cases in the past year alone have resulted in the protection of the rights of thousands of school children, employees, independent businessmen, and entrepreneurs. In case after case, Atlantic Legal brings about favorable resolutions for individuals and corporations who continue to be challenged by those who use the legal process to deny fundamental rights and liberties.
The Foundation has filed an amicus brief in two Public Employment Relations Board (“PERB”) cases. The brief addressed the question of whether PERB could exercise jurisdiction where a charter school has a management agreement with a private for-profit company to operate the school. The Foundation argued that the National Labor Relations Act preempted PERB from acting, and, under state law, PERB also lacked jurisdiction where a private entity is a joint employer with a “public” employer.
