Supreme Court rules boycott unlawful in Michigan case
In Laksing Michigan on November 11 the Michigan Supreme Court ruled that a boycott is unlawful and impermissible intimidation. Breck & Son, millers, had sought an injunction against the Railway Termeters' union to stop interference with their business but allowed distribution of boycott circulars in front of the complainant’s premises. The court’s ruling modifies the circuit court decision and sets a new limit on organized boycotts.
