Wage Court Fight In Lincoln Ties Up Omaha Case
David D. Weinberg, attorney for the Lincoln City of Drivers Union, says he filed briefs with the state industrial relations court challenging a law that allowed the court to end a recent drivers strike. He argues the law is unconstitutional for banning strikes in privately owned utilities and cites a Wisconsin ruling. The Lincoln bus drivers struck Oct. 27 and returned to work the next day under labor court orders. He also contends the law violates the federal constitution by depriving drivers of free speech and assembly and imposing voluntary servitude.
