Feather v. United Mine Workers of America

OPINION OF THE COURT

SCIRICA, Circuit Judge.

We first visited this matter seven years ago when certain coal haulers sought damages for interruption of their operations during a strike by the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA). In Feather v. United Mine Workers of America, 711 F.2d 530 (3d Cir.1983), we affirmed the UMWA’s liability on the “hot cargo” clause but remanded for findings on causation and agency. We are now called upon to review the district court’s findings on these two issues. We will affirm in part, reverse in part and remand for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
