VANCOUVER/CKNW - Canadian Pacific Railway is being taken to court after it arrested six of its employees on the picket line.
The union representing the men says the arrest was violent and illegal.
The Teamsters CanadaUunion is going after CP Rail for what they say was an illegal arrest.
And according to division President Bill Brehl they've already had one success in the courtroom.
"We're got a number of legal battles on ours hands against them over this but the first step was to get the conditions listed from the release form. One of those conditions was that they had to stay three hundred metres from CP Rail. We did get that before a judge today who immediately quashed that condition."
The union says in spite of the recent issues, they'd like to get back to the bargaining table with CP Rail.
