Reid Burton Construction, Inc., a Colorado Corporation v. Carpenters District Council of Southern Colorado
Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit
Decided May 6, 1976No. 75-1149PublishedCited by 30 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
LEWIS, Chief Judge.
Two clearly drawn but different issues are involved in this appeal: (1) Whether Reid Burton Construction’s claim for damages arising out of the unions’ alleged violation of the no-strike clause was arbitrable, and if so, (2) whether the unions, because of certain pleading and procedural tactics employed by them in the district court, were prevented by the equitable doctrines of waiver, estoppel, repudiation, or laches from asserting the arbitrability of Burton Construction’s complaint. Finding both of these issues arbitrable, the district court dismissed the present action.
