## Opinion text

Brown, J.
(concurring in the result only). The majority, in my view, reaches very difficult issues which need not now be decided. See Smith, Edwards & Clark, Labor Relations in the Public Sector 902-908 (1974); Note, Public Sector Grievance Procedures, Due Process, and the Duty of Fair Representation, 89 Harv. L. Rev. 752 , 757, n.28 (1976). It seems to me that the discussion and the resolution of the complex issues lurking in this case should await a more appropriate factual posture.
