ORDER GRANTING APPLICATION FOR ENFORCEMENT OF
SUBPOENA
On April 26, 2013, the National Labor Relations Board ("the Board") filed an application
with the Court for an order enforcing a subpoena ad testificandum properly served on
Respondent, James R. Crothers, in connection with the proceeding in Cases 9-CA-097384, 9CA-097396, 9-CA-097403 and 9-CA-097408, now pending before the Board pursuant to Section
10 of the National Labor Relations Act, as amended (29 U.S.C. § 160).
On May 20,2013, the Court caused to be served on Respondent an Order requiring him to
appear personally before the Court on June 19, 2013, and show cause, if any, why this Court
should not issue an order directing him to appear before an agent of the Regional Director for
Region 9 of the Board at such time and place as the Regional Director may determine and give
testimony.

On June 19, 2013, Respondent appeared as ordered, consented to magistrate judge
jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c), and agreed to appear as ordered. Respondent filed no
written response to the order to show cause. Good cause being shown for approval of the
Board's application, and the Board having also consented to plenary magistrate judge jurisdiction
on the record and the case having been referred on that basis, it is hereby ORDERED that:
1. The Application for Order Requiring Obedience to Subpoena Ad Testificandum is granted
and that the subpoena is enforced.
2. Respondent appear before an agent of the Regional Director in Room 3003, John Weld Peck
Federal Building, 550 Main Street. Cincinnati, Ohio on the 2nd day of July 2013 at 9:00a.m. and
give testimony in connection with the proceeding in Board Cases 9-CA-097384, 9-CA-097396,
9-CA-097403 and 9-CA-097408.
3. That a copy of this Order be served on Respondent forthwith by the Clerk by ordinary mail at
Respondent's acknowledged residence at 8 Mack Street, Gratis, Ohio 45330.
June 20, 2013.
