Ohio prison strike leads to mass dismissals and court orders
Forty two prison strikers dismissed by The Associated Press. Letters mailed to forty three strikers at two correctional facilities inform them of dismissal effective today as state officials weigh action at a third. The move affects 232 employees at Southern Ohio Correctional Institution Lucasville and two at Marien Institution Service. The strike centers on contract absence and a state rule requiring thirty percent union membership to bargain. A temporary restraining order to curb picketing was sought in Ross County Court, with an earlier order in Scioto County and a contempt hearing for three Lucasville strikers Dorcie Stevens Charles Johnston and Gary Lundy continuing today.

Court workers to seek binding bargaining rights with judges
The Supreme Court will decide whether court employees can negotiate binding labor pacts with judges. The appeal, filed by Cuyahoga County judges and backed by the Ohio Association of Juvenile Court Judges, centers on a 1972 labor agreement with juvenile court workers and a subsequent administrative stance. The case could affect administration across Ohio courts.
