1984However, if the activity in question touched interests deeply rooted in local feeling and responsibility, or if the activity was of “peripheral concern” to the policies underlying the Act, then Federal preemption did not necessarily apply- The hallmark of the Garmon doctrine, according to later cases, was its flexibility. “[T]he decision to pre-empt *** state court jurisdiction over a given class of cases must depend upon the nature of the particular interests being asserted and the effect upon the administration of national labor polices.” Vaca v.

1974The court held that this jurisdiction had been preempted by Congress to the National Labor Relations Board so that the State court had no authority to act ( 403 U.S. at 293 ): “From the foregoing, then, it would seem that this case indeed represents one of the clearest instances where the Garmon principle, properly understood, should operate to oust state court jurisdiction.

1964In Marine Engineers v. Interlake Co., 370 US 173 , the Supreme Court in some ways extended the Garmon doctrine of initial preemption to an extreme degree yet on the other hand it more clearly elucidated the point at which “arguable” federal exclusiveness ends and state jurisdictional power begins.
