cargo defense before the arbitrator, filed an unfair labor practice charge with the Board earlier, or filed a pre-arbitration suit to enjoin arbitrating the grievance. Although Local 682 failed to raise the hot cargo defense until well after the underlying grievance had been arbitrated, a court cannot enforce an unlawful hot cargo agreement. However, Local 682 has filed an unfair labor practice charge with the Board based on KCI’s suit to enforce the arbitration awards. Given the procedural posture of this case, we conclude the district court has two options on how to proceed. The district court can stay these proceedings to await the Board’s decision on the unfair labor practice charge. See, e.g., Nelson v. Int’l Bhd. of Elec. Workers.
