BROTHERHOOD OF RAILROAD TRAINMEN V. VIRGINIA EX REL. VA. STATE BAR
377 U.S. 1 (1964)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute over the solicitation of legal business.
FACTS: The Union (D) was engaged in helping to assist its injured members and the
families of members killed on the job by recommending them to lawyers whom it believes to be
honest and competent. The Va. State bar challenged this plan and found that this channeled
all the business to lawyers chosen by the Department of Legal Counsel for D. The court
issued an injunction against D's carrying out its plan in Virginia. D claimed that this
denied them their First and Fourteenth Amendment rights. This appeal resulted.
