Permanent Injunctions Sought On Dock Strike
New York and New Jersey water front authorities seek permanent federal injunctions to stop a costly dock strike that could spread along the East Coast. The ILA has ignored a temporary restraining order as about 25,000 dock workers walked off piers in New York and New Jersey. The New York Shipping Assn says no labor dispute exists and accuses the ILA of coercion to thwart the Waterfront Commission’s policing powers. The association also seeks a contempt ruling in state court. Heavily weighted tensions involve longrunning clashes over union control and dock security.
