CWA Files Lawsuit Against AT$T Inc.!

CWA filed a lawsuit on October 16, 2008 in the United States District Court in San Antonio, Texas, against AT&T Inc. and its major subsidiaries in an attempt to halt the company's use of corporate shell games to avoid contractual obligations to CWA and its members. The lawsuit, as filed, is attached to this message.

The lawsuit names as defendants AT&T Inc., every subsidiary that is a party to the five regional core contracts, AT&T Mobility (including all four regional wireless contracts), and AT&T Internet Services.

The lawsuit asks the court to issue injunctions ordering AT&T Inc. and its major subsidiaries to cease and desist from all contract violations. In addition, the lawsuit asks the court to order AT&T Inc. to recognize that it is a party to every subsidiary's collective bargaining agreement, responsible for contract compliance, and required to negotiate with CWA on issues that rightfully fall under the realm of each of the collective bargained agreements.
