Micronesian Telecommunications Corporation

(MTC) had its principal office on Saipan, a Pacific island held as a U.S. trust territory. Electrical Workers Local 1357 (IBEW) sought to represent the employees of MTC, including its employees on neighboring islands.

What jurisdictional issues should the NLRB have addressed before asserting jurisdiction of the case?

See Micronesian Tel. Corp. [273 NLRB No. 56, 118 L.R.R.M. 1067 (1984)].
