Tidewater Express Lines Inc. v. Freight Drivers and Helpers Local Union No. 557

This is an appeal by Tidewater Express Lines, Inc., an employer, whose bill of complaint against a union, Freight Drivers & Helpers Local Union No. 557, to enjoin continuance of a strike of its employees, who were members of the Union, and for damages caused by the strike in alleged breach of a collective bargaining agreement not to do so, was dismissed without leave to amend after the sustaining of the Union's demurrer which alleged that the court had no jurisdiction because of the Maryland statute, Code (1957), Art. 100, Sec. 65 (a), proscribing the issuance of injunctions in labor disputes, and because the strike was not in breach of any contract between the parties and was therefore lawful and permissible.
