Court rules union cannot fine resigned members
The Supreme Court ruled a union cannot fine members who quit a union or resign during a strike. The decision centers on the Textile Workers Union AFL CIO and a 1968 69 strike at the Nashua plant of International Paper Box Machine Co. It holds unions have no power over a former member beyond the law and cautions against fines for wages lost during a strike. The ruling also notes a separate unanimous decision upholding tenants right to sue landlords over housing discrimination under the 1968 civil rights law.
