If the Supreme Court rules in Glacier Northwest v. International Brotherhood of Teamsters that the National Labor Relations Act does not preempt state tort claims against the International Brotherhood of Teamsters for intentionally destroying an employer’s property in the course of their labor dispute with Glacier Northwest Inc., then the market resolves to Yes.
This market is a mirror of https://kalshi.com/events/GLACIER-24DEC31/markets/GLACIER-24DEC31 and will resolve the same way.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday indicated it would rule in favor of a concrete company in Washington state seeking to revive a lawsuit it filed against the International Brotherhood of Teamsters alleging that a strike damaged its product.
The legal question is whether the company, Glacier Northwest Inc., can sue the union for damages in state court over an August 2017 strike action when drivers walked off the job, leaving wet concrete in their trucks.
