A US appeals court overturned a National Labor Relations Board ruling that found Starbucks violated labor laws by banning union-supporting t-shirts and pins at its flagship Manhattan store. The court said the labor board failed to balance Starbucks' interest in maintaining its store image with workers' rights to promote unionizing.
