Picketing Ban Lifted in Lorain County Labor Case
Judge John D. Pincura lifted a no picketing restraining order against Local 571 Teamsters Union of Lorain County after upholding a county motion to fall under National Labor Relations Board jurisdiction. A future hearing, likely on a permanent injunction, will be held. Local 571 supporters held a July 31 strike at Ford Motor Co. Brownhelm Township. Temporary injunctions were issued for Sandusky Crushed Stone Co. and Broadway Cartage Co. Unfair labor practices and a proposed secondary boycott against Local 571 remain with the NLRB.
