Gym chain Equinox faced an "upstream" swim, according to one judge at the D.C. Circuit on Monday as the company contested a National Labor Relations Board decision upholding a vote to unionize at three San Francisco locations, with the panel repeatedly challenging the vote's purported connection with an incident involving a realistic-looking pellet gun.

The National Labor Relations Board on Friday urged the D.C. Circuit not to disturb a ruling to uphold a pro-union vote by employees at three of gym chain Equinox's San Francisco locations, arguing that the chain has embellished a situation in which an employee who later served as a union vote observer was fired for brandishing a realistic-looking plastic handgun.

Gym chain Equinox told the D.C. Circuit that union supporters "intimidated and coerced" employees into voting for a union and allowed a pro-union employee who was fired days prior for brandishing a realistic-looking plastic handgun to serve as an election observer, urging the appeals court to overturn a National Labor Relations Board decision that upheld the union vote.
