National Labor Relations Board says it does not have legal oversight of SpaceX and dismisses case

The US labor board is abandoning a years-long legal battle against Elon Musk’s SpaceX and signaling it will steer clear of future cases against the company, according to a letter from the board cited by the New York Times and Bloomberg.

Two years after issuing a complaint accusing the aerospace firm of firing eight engineers because of their involvement in an open letter criticizing Musk, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) said it was dismissing the case, disclaiming jurisdiction over it, according to the letter.
