This case is about a disagreement between the NFL and its players over the expiration of a collective bargaining agreement. The players filed a lawsuit saying that the NFL’s planned lockout would break antitrust laws. The district court stopped the lockout, but the League appealed, saying the injunction didn’t follow the Norris-LaGuardia Act. The questions include whether the lockout was illegal, and whether it violated antitrust laws. The League’s opt-out of the final two years of the SSA and CBA in 2008 started unsuccessful negotiations between the players and the NFL. The court is now thinking about whether the NLGA stops the injunction from happening, and whether a labor dispute can happen without a labor union.
