Verizon Communications has filed lawsuits against the Communications Workers of America union in five states in an effort to limit picketing, the <em>Associated Press</em> reported. In separate filings, the company has accused picketers in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Delaware of harassment, sabotage and of blocking access to its facilities. Verizon got a court order to limit picketing in Pennsylvania on Monday, and a similar order was granted in Delaware on Wednesday. <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/08/08/45000-verizon-workers-on-strike-for-second-day/">More than 45,000 unionized wireline employees at Verizon have walked out</a> over premium increases for health benefits, and managers are currently filing in for the striking workers.<span id="more-99774"></span>
