Shuffler v. United Brotherhood of Carpenters & Joiners of Am. (In re Shuffler)
Aug
03
2007
Ruling
Picketing of debtor's restaurant by union did not violate stay.
Procedural posture
Plaintiff debtor claimed that picketing by defendant labor union outside a building housing debtor's restaurant was driving away debtor's customers and thus violated the stay imposed per 11 U.S.C. § 362(a). Debtor sought an injunction to end the alleged violation. Defendant sought dismissal for failure to state a claim, arguing that the Norris-LaGuardia Act, 29 U.S.C. § 101 et seq., deprived the court of jurisdiction to enjoin the picketing.
