Atlantic Coast Line R. Co. v. Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers

Decided July 16, 1969
396 U.S. 1201

ON APPLICATION FOR STAY

Syllabus

The Federal District Court enjoined the enforcement of a state court injunction restraining union picketing in a railway labor dispute. In view of the longstanding policy embodied in 28 U.S.C. § 2283 that a federal court, with limited exceptions, may not enjoin state court proceedings, and the difficult and important question presented here, the District Court’s injunction is stayed pending disposition of a petition for certiorari to be expeditiously filed in this Court.
