Description

This is a petition for a writ of prohibition to prevent the Union Chancery Court from proceeding further with a suit that was brought to enjoin picketing on the part of Local Union 568 of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. Upon the matter being presented to the writer during the court's summer recess, the petition was treated as an appeal, and temporary relief was granted. The cause has now been submitted for consideration by the court as a whole. The petitioner's contention is that the local union, being an unincorporated association, cannot be sued as an entity, without one or more of its members being joined in a representative capacity. The plaintiff below is Red Ball Motor Freight, Inc., a corporation operating as a motor carrier in interstate commerce. In its complaint Red Ball alleges that a large majority of its employees are members of the Union of Transportation Employees, and Red Ball has a contract with that union. It is further alleged that Local 568 of the Teamsters Union, which does not have a contract with Red Ball, has wrongfully called a strike against Red Ball and is picketing its premises in Union County. It is also stated that the employees of another carrier, Arkansas Motor Freight Lines, refuse to cross the Teamsters' picket line, with the result that Red Ball cannot interchange freight with Arkansas Motor Freight Lines.
