Your crocodile tears about the money falls flat.

So does your entire lawsuit regarding misrepresentation (hence the 9 out of 10 claims being tossed by judge Glasser). I'm so sorry you're to stupid to realize that YOUR MEC testified under oath and said there is NO operational integration!
I'll copy it nice and big for you so read it s-l-o-w-l-y!!!!!

Senior CMR MEC officials have admitted under oath that:

ASA and CMR flying is NOT highly integrated with Delta operations
and that DAL Scope is NOT a threat to the interests and collective bargaining power of ASA and CMR

That there is NO irreconcilable conflict of interest due to ALPA’s dual obligation to Delta pilots and the ASA and CMR pilots

That it would be inappropriate for a member of one MEC to enter uninvited into the negotiations of another MEC

That during the collective bargaining process MEC’s have the autonomy to make their own decisions, bargain for their own pilots and set their own strategies

That ALPA has NOT discriminated against the CMR pilots

That the PID request was improper and authored by Dan (Ford), not the CMR MEC Chairman


I'm so sorry your cash and grab didn't work, now you'll have to go out and actually work for a living and apply to another airline like the rest of hard working america!

Thank you for your post. You tell the truth.

Do you think, like I do, that ALPA put itself in a no win situation with their contradictory testimony? It looks to me like ALPA proved up the case for the RJDC and really has no defense left.

This is where the money thing starts to scare me - The RJDC is probably going to win this lawsuit and ALPA's past history is to try to buy off the Plaintiffs. I keep hoping ALPA will do the right thing, but politicians like Court enforced confidential settlements and ALPA's track record for doing the right thing is abysmal.

- Before the lawsuit was filed (and after), we sent letters to Duane Woerth and the EC asking for an audience with the Executive Council to air our concerns and got nowhere.

I can't remember whether Dan and Ken were invited to speak with the EC, but I believe they did speak with the Joint Standing Committee and the BSIC.

- We met with our local MECs several times and were ignored.

As well you should be.

- We filed grievances against the union. They weren't heard. We didn't lose the grievances, they weren't heard.

Labor law is very clear on this: unions are not required to hear or file grievances if they believe that the grievance lacks merit.

- We requested a hearing board from ALPA. Nothing.

There was nothing that merited a "hearing."

- About six months into the litigation, we put a settlement offer on the table and one has been there ever since.

The settlement offer was completely unacceptable on many levels. I firmly believe that Dan had Haber throw it out there as a red herring because he knew ALPA could never accept such a horrible settlement, even if it did eliminate the monetary claims. He just wanted to be able to tell people that he offered to settle. Good politics and spin, but nothing substantive.

Do you understand that an amount must be placed on the lawsuit?

No, an amount does not have to be placed on a lawsuit if all you seek is injunctive relief.
