MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Air Transport Ass'n of America (ATA) v. Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization (Patco), 667 F.2d 316 (2nd Cir. 1981):

10 The district courts did not have jurisdiction under Executive Order No. 11491, which barred strikes by federal employee unions, because the district courts lack jurisdiction to enforce executive orders. See, e.g., Manhattan-Bronx Postal Union v. Gronouski, 350 F.2d 451, 456-59 (D.C. Cir. 1965), cert. denied, 382 U.S. 978, 86 S.Ct. 548, 15 L.Ed.2d 469 (1966).
