The Supreme Court set aside the lower courts' dismissal of the union officer's claim, ruling that the dismissal without union board consent violated labor law protections. While the court affirmed the employee's right to damages, it limited the remedy of reinstatement to cases where the dismissal stemmed from union duties. Consequently, the case was remanded for the lower court to determine the specific reasons for the dismissal.
