UAW weighs lawsuit over bonus check seizure at Ford plants
UAW officials discuss possible legal action after Lorain County Domestic Relations Court Judge Henry T. Webber ordered about 250 to 400 bonus checks withheld from Ford workers in Lorain and Avon Lake for delinquent child support. The seizure affects workers owed 200 to 5000 dollars, with Ford’s profit sharing average around 2100 dollars per employee. The judge says resources were limited to intercept only those 200 or more in arrears and notes some errors were corrected quickly.
