VENTIMIGLIA V. UNITED STATES
242 F.2d 620 (4th Cir. 1957)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was an appeal from a conviction of conspiracy to violate 29
U.S.C.A. Section 186(a).
FACTS: Mastic, Inc. was a nonunionized contractor engaged in the insulating and weather
proofing business. Parran was its general manager and Ventimiglia (D) its labor relations
advisor. Mastic got a job as a sub for a general who was a unionized company and needed to
get union cards for its workers. Martin, the business agent for Local No. 80 complained to
Mastic that its workmen were carrying cards issued not by him but by Ventimiglia who was
then working for Mastic but who had earlier been the business agent for the union. After
discussions, Martin was persuaded by Ds to issue working cards to Mastic's employees for
which Ds agreed to pay Martin $100 each month. Martin did issue working cards signed by him
and then got several monthly payments from Ds. Ds were brought to trial and acquitted of the
substantive offenses but convicted of the conspiracy charges. This appeal followed.
