Indiana’s “right to work” law violates the state constitution’s guarantee of just compensation for services rendered, a Lake County (Indiana) Superior Court Judge has held. Sweeney v. Zoeller, No. 45D01-1305-PK-52 (Ind. Super. Ct. Sept. 5, 2013). Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller has filed an appeal and the case will go directly to the Indiana Supreme Court (since the decision holds a state statute unconstitutional), which likely will overturn the trial court decision. Meanwhile, the trial court has stayed relief for the duration of any appeal and the law remains in full force and effect.
