In the case lochner v. new york, who did the supreme court rule could determine the length of the workday?
a) the unions and workers
b) the employers and employees
c) the workers and the state
d) the employers and the federal government

B. the employers and employees. The case in question happened after bakeshop owner Joseph Lochner in different courts (the last being the Supreme Court) after his second offense of the Bakeshop Act, that stated that employees of bakeries had a maximum week work time (60 hours with 10 daily hours). Claiming that the Act was unconstitutional, Lochner took his case to the Appellate Division of the New York Supreme Court and the New York Court of Appeals (the conviction was upheld on both of them). He then took his case to the Supreme Court, where it was ruled that the Act was unconstitutional, since it went against the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, limiting the freedom of choice of the individual by the state (although the decision was highly controversial, since many judges saw the Bakeshop Act as a health law).
