Time of Appeals. (1) Hereafter, a grievance not appealed from an answer at one step of the grievance procedure to the next step of the grievance procedure within five (5) working days after such answer, except that on appeal to arbitration the time limit shall be thirty (30) days, shall be considered settled on the basis of the last answer and not subject to further review but shall not prejudice the position of either party with respect to a grievance involving the same issue at another plant. (2) A grievance may be withdrawn without prejudice and if so withdrawn all financial liabilities shall be cancelled. If the grievance is reinstated, the financial liability shall date only from the date of the reinstatement. If the grievance is not reinstated within three (3) months from the date of withdrawal, the grievance shall not be reinstated. Where one or more grievances involve a similar issue, those grievances may be withdrawn without prejudice pending the disposition of the appeal of a representative case. In such event the withdrawal without prejudice will not affect financial liability.
