MEMORANDUM OF THE COURT
BUTZNER, District Judge.
Floyd Thompson brought this action against the International Association of Machinists, a trade union, and Southern Greyhound Lines to recover damages against the union for failing to represent him properly at an arbitration hearing or in the alternative to require the company to reinstate him in a job from which he was discharged. Thompson’s principal complaint is that he was not notified of the arbitration hearing.
The court concludes that Thompson is entitled to recover damages from the union. He is not entitled to relief against the company.
