Teamsters v. Lucas Flour Co., 369 U.S. 95 (1962), was a United States Supreme Court case in which the court held that a binding arbitration stipulation in a collective bargaining agreement constitutes a limited, implied no-strike clause over the matters subject to arbitration. Therefore, a strike to settle a dispute subject to mandatory arbitration was unprotected.
