A certification, representation, or decertification petition or a showing of interest may be withdrawn by a party at any point before the fifth calendar day after the commissioner issues an appropriate unit determination.
A clarification, transfer of exclusive representative status, amendment of certification, or affiliation petition may be withdrawn at any time before the hearing on the petition closes.
For a certification election, if an employee organization withdraws, and no other employee organization has petitioned or intervened, the petition must be dismissed.
For a representation election, if an incumbent exclusive representative withdraws, the matter must be processed as though a certification petition had been filed by the challenging employee organization.
For a decertification election, if a petitioner withdraws and no other employee organization has petitioned or intervened, the petition must be dismissed.
If the petitioner withdraws but another employee organization that has petitioned or intervened does not withdraw, the matter must be processed as a representation petition.
