1Opinion of the Court
BOYCE F. MARTIN, Jr., Circuit Judge.
The Columbus local of the American Postal Workers Union challenges the district court’s dismissal of its complaint on res judicata grounds.
The union filed its complaint in January 1980 to enjoin the Postal Service from disciplining postal workers for failing to maintain an adequate work schedule when their absence was caused by use of approved sick leave. The Postal Service filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim. On April 22, 1980, the district judge granted the motion with respect to some but not all of the union’s claims.
