Answer to Question 1

Wrongful interference
The union was not liable. This was a legal strike and therefore one of the permitted inter-ferences with contractual or business relationships. Parties who are damaged by an em-ployer's failure to deliver foods or services as the result of a strike have no right of action against the striking union.
