Jane Loss v. Rayford T. Blankenship
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
SPRECHER, Circuit Judge.
This is an appeal from an order dismissing a class action complaint which alleged violations of the Labor Management Relations Act (“LMRA”), 29 U.S.C. § 141 et seq., and tortious interference with contract under Indiana common law. We hold that dismissal of the federal claim for failure to state a claim under the LMRA was proper. We find, however, that the district court retained diversity jurisdiction over the common law claim and, accordingly, we remand that portion of the case for further proceedings.

The plaintiffs in this case are the employees of Mark Twain…
