1Opinion of the Court

MESKILL, Circuit Judge:

This case asks us to decide whether the Sheet Metal Workers’ International Association (the International) may be held liable under the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA), 29 U.S.C. § 411, because in its quasi-appellate role, the International ratified a decision of the local union that allegedly violated member Louis Doro’s (Doro) due process rights. We hold that the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Brieant, properly granted summary judgment for the International and dismissed the claim.

Affirmed; cross-appeal…
