Nature Of The Case

This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

Facts

All American (P) bought Golden State's (P) soft drink bottling and distribution business after D had ordered Golden State (P), 'its officers, agents, successors, and assigns' to reinstate with back pay a driver-salesman, Kenneth L. Baker, whose discharge by Golden State (P) was found to have been an unfair labor practice. D found that All American (P) continued after the acquisition to carry on the business without interruption or substantial changes in method of operation, employee complement, or supervisory personnel. D held that All American (P), having acquired the business with knowledge of the outstanding order, was a 'successor' and liable for the reinstatement of Baker with backpay. Ds appealed, and the Court of Appeals enforced the order. Ps appealed.
