"Peter Kiewit Sons? Inc. and its subsidiaries have been tied to a string
of bid-rigging cases in as many as 11 states and two countries."

From what I can see, they are in court quite often.  However, they
have a large, expensive, and talented team of lawyers on staff, so it
seems like they usually win.

" Summit's complaint asserts Kiewit committed a substantial breach of
special provision 7 by requiring Summit to work concurrently with the
electrical, mechanical and structural contractors and to phase its
backfill operation. Summit also alleges Kiewit was guilty of tortious
conduct in that Kiewit hindered Summit's performance of the contract
by requiring Summit to perform work with relation to backfill in a
manner entirely foreign to that contracted for and of such complexity
as to destroy the contract, by changing schedule and completion dates
relating to backfill so often and by interrupting Summit's work to the
point that it was impossible to restore the operation to a condition
of normalcy, and by demanding and inducing Summit to embark upon a
scope of work of such magnitude beyond the contract that Summit was
unable to perform either its contract or the extra work demanded of
it."

Do court cases count as "articles?"

A trip to the library may be in order.
Here are some law journals:

You might consult a periodical index at the library for terms such as
"labor law" and "employment law" and whatever else.

help.  Good luck)
