     185.20 Injunctions between employers in labor disputes.  


    Subdivision 1.    Violation of agreement.  When any group of 
 employers of labor, 
 residing or operating in this state, have, by written agreement 
 between themselves, agreed upon certain minimum wages to be paid 
 to their employees, hours of labor, or other conditions of 
 employment, and such agreement is willfully violated, then, and 
 in that event, any one or more of such employers, parties to the 
 agreement, may, by an appropriate action in a district court, 
 make application for a restraining order, temporary injunction, 
 or permanent injunction, against the party or parties so 
 violating the agreement, to restrain the violation thereof as to 
 the minimum wages, hours of labor, and other conditions of 
 employment specified in the agreement, and proof of willful 
 violation of the agreement in respect to any or either thereof, 
 shall be sufficient grounds for the issuance of such restraining 
 order, temporary injunction, or permanent injunction.  


    Subd. 2.    Application.  Subdivision 1 shall not apply to 
 actions to 
 enjoin the violation of open or closed shop agreements, nor to 
 actions to enjoin the violation of agreements or so-called codes 
 of fair competition made or established pursuant to any state or 
 federal law.  


    Subd. 3.    Relation to other sections.  The provisions of 
 sections 185.07 to 185.19 shall 
 not apply to actions or proceedings to which subdivision 1 
 applies.
