Avco Corp. v. Aero Lodge No. 735, International Ass'n of MacHinists & Aerospace Workers
Supreme Court of the United States

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Douglas
Petitioner filed a suit in a state court in Tennessee to enjoin respondent union and its members and associates from striking at petitioner’s plant. The heart of the complaint was a “no-strike” clause in the collective bargaining agreement by which “grievances” were to be settled amicably or by binding arbitration. The eligibility of employees for promotion engendered disputes— allegedly subject to the grievance procedure — which so far as appears involved no violence or trespass but which resulted in work stoppages and a walkout by employees. The state court issued an ex -parte injunction.
