U. S. Supreme Court Issues Graniterock-Teamsters Ruling
In the long-running case of Graniterock Co. v. International Brotherhood of Teamsters & Teamsters Local 287, the U.S. Supreme Court last week confirmed Graniterock�s jury verdict against Local 287 and refused to dismiss the International Brotherhood of Teamsters from the case, leaving Graniterock several options to pursue claims against the International.
The Supreme Court�s decision was unanimous concerning the International. The court�s confirmation of Graniterock�s jury verdict was issued on a 7-2 vote.
