    June 2003 On the Level International loses yet again in pension suit
    Judge rules for BC Carpenters in court case
    The International has lost another round in its latest lawsuit against the BC Carpenters Union. The UBCJA unsuccessfully applied to the court to stop BC Carpenters from making certain references to General President Douglas McCarron's "potential for self-dealing" in an amendment to their statement of defence in the case involving 13 Local Unions and several Councils' refusal to contribute to an American Pension Plan for elected officers. The amendments were to include two paragraphs that referred to McCarron's relationship with Union Labor Life Insurance Company (Ullico).
