Description
CLAPP brought action against Williams, United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, a labor union, and various officers and members of its executive board. We refer to them collectively as the defendants and to Clapp as plaintiff, as at the trial. The purpose of the action was to recover actual and exemplary damages by reason of Clapps alleged unlawful expulsion from membership in Carpenters Local Union No. 55, a subsidiary organization of the above named brotherhood. The gravaman of Clapps complaint was that because of expulsion, he was thereafter unable to follow his occupation as a carpenter, or to obtain work and earn wages at his trade. On trial to a jury, verdict and judgment resulted in defendants favor and plaintiff assigned error.
