Description
Plaintiffs-appellants Claude Corea and Raymond Lavery (collectively "plaintiffs") appeal the district court's January 19, 1990 grant of summary judgment in favor of defendants-appellees (collectively "defendants"): the Cleveland and Vicinity District Council of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America ("District Council"); the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America ("International");*fn1 and individual members of the District Council, Secretary-Treasurer, Thomas J. Welo, President, David L. Quimby, Trustees, Jack Cahil, Dan Molchan, Larry Hocevar and Ray Zak, as well as certain undesignated John Does (collectively "individual defendants"). Plaintiffs contend that the District Council's discontinuation of a Coordinated Housing Organizing Program ("CHOP" or "Program") without a rank and file vote violated section 101 of the Labo Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 (the "LMRDA" or the "Act"), 29 U.S.C. § 411 [hereinafter § 411]. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated section 501 of the Act, 29 U.S.C. § 501 [hereinafter § 501], by breaching their fiduciary duties. Plaintiffs further claim that the federal district court has jurisdiction under section 301 of the Labor Management Relations Act ("LMRA"), 29 U.S.C. § 185 [hereinafter § 185], to address claims that defendants' actions violated various provisions of the union constitution and bylaws. For the reasons set forth below, we AFFIRM the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of defendants.
