Court | U.S. Court of Appeals — Seventh Circuit |
Rehearing Denied June 4, 1908.
In Error to the Circuit Court of the United States for the Eastern Division of the Northern District of Illinois.
For opinion below, see 141 F. 679.
The plaintiff in error, Daniel Garrigan, was adjudged by the Circuit Court guilty of contempt, in the violation of an injunctional order issued by that court, in aiding and abetting the parties enjoined and interfering with the business and employes under the protection of such order, and the proceedings and judgment are brought for review by this writ of error.
The judgment recites the proceedings and findings and reads as follows:
’
The injunctional order referred to ran against various trade organizations and individuals, named as defendants in the bill filed by the Employers' Teaming Company- the plaintiff in error not being named therein, nor party of record in any form- and ‘ each and every of the agents and servants of the said defendants and of each of them, and any and all other persons and associations now or hereafter aiding or abetting or confederating or acting in concert with said defendants or any or either of them, in committing the acts and grievances or any of them complained of in said bill of complaint,‘ and restrained the commission of various acts, including the following: ‘ Hindering, obstructing, or stopping any of the business of the complainant, the Employers' Teaming Company, in the maintenance, conduct, management, or operation of any of its business, barns, stables, horses, wagons, or properties of any kind in the city of Chicago; * * * also, from in any manner interfering with, hindering, obstructing or stopping the passage along and through the streets of said city of any of complainant's wagons, teams, or teamsters in and about the business of complainant; * * * and also from accompanying, following, talking with, or calling upon any person or persons employed by or doing business with said complainant against the express will of said person or persons, for the purpose of or in such manner as to intimidate, threaten, or coerce any such person or persons; * * * and also, either singly or in combination with others, from picketing, besetting, or patrolling any place or places where said complainant's employes, teams, wagons, stables, barns, or other property may be or happen to be in said city; * * * and also, from ordering, assisting, aiding, or abetting in any manner whatsoever any person or persons to commit any of the acts aforesaid.‘ It further provided for service of the order upon and in respect of the defendants therein, and that it ‘ shall be binding upon all of said defendants and all other persons whomsoever from and after the time they severally have knowledge of the allowance of this order.‘

Before BAKER and SEAMAN, Circuit Judges, and SANBORN, District Judge.
SEAMAN Circuit Judge (after stating the facts as above).
The plaintiff in error was not a party to the bill filed by the Employers' Teaming Company for injunctional relief, nor a member of either of the associations named as defendants therein, nor named in the restraining order whereof violation is averred in these contempt proceedings, and neither averment nor proof appears of his relation to or privity with either of the parties enjoined, prior to or apart from the alleged acts in violation and contempt of such order.
Thus the proceedings and conviction which are brought for review under this writ of error are distinctly criminal in their nature, and reviewable in conformity with the established doctrine of such procedure.
