Sully's Story

[vetrider]

You can tell from that transcript that seham and usapa were figuratively behind the bush wispering in sullied's ear. What a jack off for stooping so low. Fahrenheit 451.

 

[BeCareful!]

We won't know exactly what those instructions are until after the fact. Suffice to say USAPA objected to all 11 of them and our side had no objections.

Well that certainly sounds fair.

So if you guys lose this are you going to appeal? I only ask because if we've learned anything from reading this stupid message board it's that you guys have most if not all of the integrity in the whole wide world, and also, that you think Judge Wake is the bestest, most fairest, coolest thing since DME. Appealing would indicate that you think the process is flawed. You don't think processes are ever flawed, do you?

Well that certainly sounds fair.

You just don't get. The judge is allowed to have an opinion and he arrived at that opinion after seeing the evidence and hearing the testimony. So yes, it most definitely is fair -- even if you don't like it.

So if you guys lose this are you going to appeal?

Probably. My guess is neither appeal will go anywhere.

Here is some commentary from Judge Wake found in Friday's (May 8th) transcript excerpts on page 1795 at line 19:

MR. SEHAM:

Well, this is a factual issue for the jury that relates to motive. What was the motive to uniformly benefit an East monolithic group and uniformly disadvantage a monolithic West group? And, in fact, these groups are very factionalized. They break down into segments. There's some benefits to East Pilots and some disadvantages. The same applies to West Pilots. With respect to this whole concept of catastrophic, Captain Mowrey testified it's really a non-issue given the restriction --
​

THE COURT:

If your view is it matters because it goes solely to the subjectivity to the defendant's officers, I must tell you, having heard the evidence, I do not see how any reasonable juror could think that the USAPA list is not substantially and gravely less favorable to the West Pilots. Now maybe your people believe that and they may have a pure heart. But no rational person could think it's just as good. And the catastrophic layoff provision alone demonstrates that powerfully.

Are the transcripts available online in pdf? I googled but couldn't find 'em.

What is this "catastrophic layoff provision" he refers to?

What is this "catastrophic layoff provision" he refers to?

A catastrophic layoff is considered to occur when 25% of the pilots are furloughed. The danger is when a catastrophic furlough happens, ALL "conditions and restrictions" that the fake union Usapa arbitrarily yanked from their rectums to impose on the west, go away.

Obviously, if 25% get furloughed under the DOH scheme, 80% of AMW pilots lose their jobs...the ones they actually HAD when the merger was announced unlike the 800 easties who were on the street with 5 year old pink slips.

BTW, US Air East entered this merger with 33% of their pilots on furlough...it can happen.

Today is closing arguments. So far, the Judge has handed the East their own azz at every turn. Let's hope for the final blow.
