Hey NYC,

....

My two hundredths of a dollar's worth.

So, when task loaded it's okay to disregard procedure and flows and simply move controls around to make yourself feel better?

Sorta like the LUP stuff the MARTY uses , no legal definition, we make up terms to fit our cause!

What is even more hilarious is the judge attached to SEIGAL on the 9th that ruled on the writ, now that is about to get real interesting, DID I MENTION DUI IS ON A STRICT TIMELINE HERE! ERIC H> got that message also loud and clear!

The company sent Holder a message. They want names of who is interfering with the merger....

AA, US Air Want DOJ to Reveal Interviewee Names

September 26, 2013


American Airlines and US Airways want the names of people interviewed by the Justice Department before it filed an antitrust lawsuit to block the carriers’ merger.

“Plaintiffs investigated the challenged merger for many months before filing suit, interviewing third parties and gathering information they believe justifies their attempt to block the merger,” the airlines said in documents filed with the court.

The DOJ said the airlines are calling for it “to specify each document, deposition, or other fact or piece of evidence that supports particular contentions that Plaintiffs intend to prove at trial. Such a requirement is overly broad, unduly burdensome, and premature.”

But the airlines said they only requested “the identities of the third parties who Plaintiffs interviewed and the factual information those witnesses disclosed,” and they added that the plaintiffs are “eager to hold back the information they learned.”

Those third parties could include employees of competing airlines.

Meanwhile, American and US Airways extended the expiration date of their merger agreement to Jan. 18, 2014.

Glad to see I missed nothing in the last three days. Prechill continues to prove my theorem that the NIC is indeed seen as dead by the West Class...by telling me how little pay I make. And she misses the point, as do many. If the West Class was so sure (seven years sure now) that the NIC is the list, and that they have a slam dunk DFR if it is not used, then why the litigation BEFORE the pay raise and contract? That is not working, never will. As to punishing us with a wish of lower, non-parity pay, I guess that goes to inexperience, meaning no mergers ever in their history. Even the APA guys realize that no matter how high they sit on the perch, they don't want another group on the property making less. But Parker and the West (with litigation) really stuck it to us. No pay raises for anyone. As to all the kumba ya and pontification on how you or me, or all of us screwed up I will say this. With the knowledge I had at the time I would not have changed a thing about our pursuit of DOH. Not one thing. And I love the guys that come here and say "they saw it coming." I gather some would have thrown the East furloughs under the bus, because that was the only option being presented by the West Class. Same ones that saw the DOJ filing on the way. This entire group, rather 75% total and 98% of the West Class signed on to a new process, and they did not need anonymous posters on a web board to tell them how everyone screwed up. They moved on, only to be slapped by into reality by the DOJ.
Wait, was I also supposed to discuss how Sully and Jeff blew it? Right. RR

"Mister Fantastic (Reed Richards) is a fictional character, a superhero that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics." Wiki

What happened to those superheros after they dried themselves off and where unmasked by Harper during the Addington trial?

I'll tell you where they went, Mr Fantastic. They cashed their lottery tickets and split.

Awww that's too bad. No more Sully and Skiles for the USAPA circus.

Tissue?

And the DOJ told them to go pound sand. Next?

The whole TOGA thing is a westie angst, hero envy.

In summary, the NTSB concludes that both engines were operating normally until they each ingested at least two large birds (weighing about 8 pounds each), one of which was ingested into each engine core, causing mechanical damage that prevented the engines from being able to provide sufficient thrust to sustain flight.

Well...in all fairness, perhaps a true "spartan" or mighty "knight" could've kept the aircraft in the sky merely through the sheer force of their concentrated "integrity"...? 😉

Next? Next is U.S. District Court Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly who could rule either way.

Any other questions?

More like the utter flatulence of your insipid posts. I'll wait while you find a dictionary.

Anyone care to speculate how a government shutdown would affect the courts in general and the three litigations which affect us in particular (DOJ, DJ, Addington)?

 

[Piedmont1984]

Sure, I'll chime in. The courts will continue to operate normally for perhaps two weeks. After that they will begin prioratizing, which means Addington gets another delay. So too, the company's DJ appeal. The DOJ lawsuit will not be delayed, too much money at stake. Besides, postponing the lawsuit would give the DOJ what they wanted in the first place - a trial next year. Besides, Kollar-Kottaly never wanted this trial anyway, which is why she scheduled it during Thanksgiving week.

I retain the privilege to modify and amend my remarks.

So....

Did a judge tell the company to pound sand on this issue?

I think Addington is not the issue which will lead to a shutdown. It's Obamacare. I say let em run with it for a year, let it fail and set up for a Republican revolution similar to what happened in 94.

Keep hope alive in pure Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson terms, 84. If this shutdown delays justice, it's just a delay, that's it.

Let's see how many actually sign up for it. I don't think a family of 4 at 50k per year could afford it or would be willing to afford it.

You guys are derailing my train of thought.
