United States Second Circuit
The Building Industry Electrical Contractors Ass'n v. City of New York, 11-3590
In a suit by two contractors' associations, alleging that a number of long-term construction labor agreements entered into by the City of New York were labor regulations that were preempted by the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), the district court's dismissal of the complaint is affirmed, where the city acted as a market participant and not a regulator in entering the agreements, so its actions fell outside the scope of NLRA preemption.
