## Opinion text

Black, J.
(concurring). I agree with Justice Brennan’s conclusion that “plaintiff has sufficiently alleged that his union arbitrarily and with had faith thwarted his efforts to redress his grievance” (ante at p 562). That is enough to call for denial of what in this record is known as a motion for accelerated judgment. *
My vote is cast to reverse and remand for further proceedings consistent with denial of defendant’s said motion. Plaintiff should have costs of all three courts, thus far sustained.
For the decision immediately below, see 24 Mich App 60 .
