The Associated Press reports that U.S. District Court Judge Lawrence Zatkoff says he has no authority to tell a labor union to stop encouraging people to protest the firing of a Pulte Homes Inc. employee.
Zatkoff on Thursday denied the homebuilder’s request for an injunction against the Laborers’ International Union of North America.
Bloomfield Hills, Mich.-based Pulte says union allies were jamming voicemail and e-mail after a construction crew leader was fired Sept. 4 in Tucson, Ariz.
