General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.
Bakery Drivers Local v. Wohl, 315 U.S. 769 (1942)
Bakery & Pastry Drivers & Helpers Local 802, International Brotherhood of Teamsters v. Wohl No. 901 October Term 1940 Argued January 13, 1942 Decided March 30, 1942 315 U.S. 769
CERTIORARI TO THE COURT OF APPEALS OF NEW YORK
Syllabus
1. Members of a labor union of drivers engaged in the distribution of baked goods, in an endeavor to induce peddlers to work but six days a week and to hire an unemployed union member one day a week, peacefully picketed bakeries from which the peddler obtained their goods, and places of business of the peddlers’ customers, carrying placards with the peddlers’ names and a true statement of the union’s grievance.
Held, that a state court injunction against such picketing was an unconstitutional invasion of the right of free speech. Pp. 772, 775.
2. The right of free speech does not depend in such a case on whether or not a "labor dispute," as defined by the state statutes, is involved. P. 774.
284 N.Y. 788, 31 N.E.2d 765, reversed.
Certiorari, 313 U.S. 548, to review the affirmance of a judgment sustaining an injunction. A petition for rehearing of the judgment of reversal, id., was granted, 314 U.S. 701.
