Southern District of New York Judge Victor Marrero blocked Northwest Airlines flight attendants from going on strike Friday, handing a victory to the airline just hours before a planned strike action. Northwest, already operating under bankruptcy protection, has said a strike could kill it. Marrero said that while the injury to flight attendants would be to delay their ability to strike, "far greater injuries exist to Northwest and the public by permitting the strike to commence at this point."

A New York federal judge blocked Northwest Airlines flight attendants from going on strike Friday, handing a victory to the airline just hours before a planned strike action that could have devastated the cash-strapped company.
U.S. District Judge Victor Marrero said he will issue an injunction to allow time for him to examine the case. He said Northwest Airlines Corp. made a “persuasive case” that a delay in any strike was necessary so that the legal issues could be resolved.
