Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit July 6, 1977, 76-1981 (Michael Mezo v. International Union, United Steelworkers of America)

TONE, Circuit Judge.

This case raises the question of whether

Hall v. Cole,

412 U.S. 1, 93 S.Ct. 1943, 36 L.Ed.2d 702 (1973), should be interpreted to permit the allowance of an attorney’s fee for prelitigation services in connection with a claim later asserted in a suit under § 102 of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, 29 U.S.C.
