April 15, 1943290 N.Y. 459

Summary

The Court held that the plaintiff’s expulsion from the union was unlawful, that he had exhausted all available internal remedies, and therefore he is entitled to reinstatement but not damages. It reversed the Appellate Division’s denial of reinstatement and ordered the Joint Council to hear the pending appeal.
