## Opinion text

TRASK, Circuit Judge,
dissenting.
I would respectfully dissent from Judge Pregerson’s conclusion that the allegations in Bryant’s pleadings could state a cause of action in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in International Brotherhood of Teamsters v. United States, 431 U.S. 324 , 97 S.Ct. 1843 , 52 L.Ed.2d 396 (1977). I would therefore affirm the district court’s decision dismissing this action.
