Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit - 891 F.2d 296 (9th Cir. 1989) Argued and Submitted Oct. 3, 1989. Decided Dec. 6, 1989

Before HUG, FARRIS, and REINHARDT, Circuit Judges.


MEMORANDUM* 

This appeal raises the same issues concerning the same Master Labor Agreement and the same conduct by Blake, terminating its participation in that agreement, as was involved in our prior decision in Laborers' Int'l Union of North Am., Local 89, AFL-CIO v. Blake Construction Co., C.A., No. 88-5961 (9th Cir. Mar. 8, 1989). For the reasons expressed in that memorandum, we affirm in this case.

REINHARDT, Circuit Judge, concurring specially:

For jurisprudential reasons, I concur because of the prior memorandum decision in which we definitively construed this very contract. Were I to have faced this question initially, I might well have reached a contrary result, but under the circumstances, I feel obligated to concur.

AFFIRMED.
