New York Court of Appeals

H. William Thompson, Doing Business Under the Name of Lyric Theatre, Respondent v. Fred Boekhout, Appellants

March 23, 1937273 N.Y. 390

Summary

The Court held that section 876-a of the Civil Practice Act does not apply to the injunction sought against a small business owner who employs no workers, because such a situation is not a “labor dispute” under the statute. Accordingly, the lower court’s order was affirmed and costs were awarded.
