Exegesis
The subject group Dēmētrios kai hoi syn autō tekhnitai {Δημήτριος καὶ οἱ σὺν αὐτῷ τεχνῖται | Dēmḗtrios kaí hoi syn autô tekhnîtai} combines a named individual with a defining appositional phrase “the craftsmen with him,” presenting them as a collective party in the legal dispute.
In context — Acts 19:38
If therefore Demetrius and the craftsmen with him have a complaint against anyone, the courts are in session, and there are proconsuls; let them bring charges against one another.
