The record discloses that a “ labor dispute ” was here involved, even though members of the defendant unions were not employed by the plaintiff. (Civ. Prac. Act, § 876-a, subd. 10; Goldfinger v. Feintuch, 276 N. Y. 281; May’s Furs & Ready-to-Wear, Inc., v. Bauer, 282 id. 331. See, also, Lauf v. Shinner & Co., 303 U. S. 323; New Negro Alliance v. Sanitary Grocery Co., Id. 552.) The plaintiff, having failed to plead or prove the facts prescribed by section 876-a of the Civil Practice Act, could not be accorded injunctive relief. (Boro Park Market v. Heller, 280 N. Y. 481.) The question is not affected by the fact, if it be a fact, that the State Labor Relations Board has held that the union, whose members are now employed by the plaintiff, is the proper agency for collective bargaining. (Fairbanks Cube Steak House, Inc., v. Viera, 259 App. Div. 804.)
The judgment should be reversed, with costs, and the complaint dismissed, with costs.
