Juventino Balderas, Plaintiff-Appellant-Cross v. La Casita Farms, Inc., Defendant-Appellee-Cross
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
DYER, Circuit Judge:
The United Farmworkers Organizing Committee (UFWOC) is a labor organization, active in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas, consisting primarily of Mexican-American farmworkers. The principal issue presented in this case is whether an employer’s discharge of a Mexican-American employee who is associated with the UFWOC contravenes Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, 42 U.S.C.A. § 2000e et seq., by virtue of the organization’s official involvement in civil rights-related activities. We hold that under the circumstances of this case, it does not.
