The unions say they received a letter Oct. 4 from Los Angeles attorney Deborah Drooz, who is representing Aenlle, which demands they retract their falsehoods or face a lawsuit.
The unions' complaint states that the Aenlle letter was sent with clear intent to interfere with, intimidate, restrain, coerce and discriminate against the unions for their exercise of protected rights.
Deputy union president Carlos Tapia felt threatened and believed he could not communicate with union members for fear of being sued after Aenlle's letter.
The unions filed a PERB complaint on Aug. 30 against the sheriff's office, alleging that Sheriff Corpus imposed a new policy increasing mandatory overtime without prior consultation.
