| Finner domstol att visst förfarande strider mot kollektivavtal eller mot denna lag, fÄr domstolen pÄ yrkande befria arbetsgivare, arbetstagare eller organisation frÄn förpliktelse enligt kollektivavtal eller enligt lagen, i den mÄn det med hÀnsyn till det otillÄtna förfarandet icke skÀligen kan krÀvas att förpliktelsen fullgöres.
