Before BROWNING, NORRIS and O'SCANNLAIN, Circuit Judges.


O'SCANNLAIN, Circuit Judge:

We review the claims in bankruptcy of individual employees for damages arising from their employer's placing them on furlough allegedly in violation of a collective bargaining agreement. The bankruptcy court held that the employees lacked standing because only their collective bargaining agent could bring such claims, and the district court affirmed. We now affirm the district court.
