Francis G. Fanning, Phoenix, for plaintiffs-appellants/cross-appellees.

Snell & Wilmer by Robert J. Deeny, Thomas J. Kennedy, Daniel J. McAuliffe, Phoenix, for defendants-appellees/cross-appellants.

OPINION

McGREGOR, Presiding Judge.

Appellant Andy Chavez (Chavez) brought claims against his employer for breach of employment contract and for wrongful discharge and a claim against the employer's general manager for intentional interference with contract. The issue is whether federal labor law preempts these state court claims. We conclude the doctrine of preemption applies and deprives the state courts of jurisdiction.
