S.1113(e) And Pension Hearing

[700UW]

If you read the SR VP of MTC's depostions, he will be on the stand tomorrow and lets just say the IAM attorney has a surprise for him.

Can you say the word Perjury boys and girls?

I read his statement and to say the least I was amused!!!! He must have not of been aware of the tooling U received when the Airbus was purchased or the spare parts most of which are currently located in HMV.

Hopefully the judge will see through the lies and give an honest ruling.......

700, You know this is sooo "who cares" its not funny.... You may know how to clean a plane, but a lawyer youre not. None of this matters. Iam as well as all of us have to face reality. I know you dont like it, but you will see, this judge isnt interested in that kinda of crap. Whats the past is the past. The judge will rule based on facts of todays numbers.... Not yesterdays. Prepare your self for the reality my friend, denial is futile.

 

[AP Tech]

Number lie and LIARS figure!!!!

Well come to court tomorrow, the IAM Attornies are very prepared, you were not there, you are not a member of the IAM so your opinion does not count anyhow.

When you know more the one of the top bankruptcy attornies in the US, then tell me.

But I will believe Sharon Levine over you anyday.

Remember we all know you were caught pretending to be something you weren't.

All the v.p. has to do is take the 5 th.l

 

[700UW]

Then he will be held in contempt of court, this is not a criminal hearing.

 

[usfliboi]

There ya go again.... You havent caught anyone doing anything, other than you continueing to pretend you know whats what.... But im not gonna be the one who teaches you alesson about law. They will!

 

[robbedagain]

You seem to forget he said:

"I want to do what i fair"

"I want to do what is right"

"I want to see the airline survive"

You seem to forget in an 1113e motion, the judge can modify it as he sees fit, so what you will probably see is him split the baby.

And I can post motions from ALPA, IAM, CWA and AFA that disputes what the CC said, of course they want the pay cuts so they can get as much money possible out of this dead horse.

And I will be in court tomorrow.

Facts? LOL, very funny. Kinda like getting the "facts" from Pravda.

... 23% for everyone is a flat rate, meaning the lower payed will be giving less than the higher payed workers.

Peace B)

[post="189879"][/post]​

Which means that the 23% cut will be more detrimental on the lower paid worker. :down:

 

[OldGuyinPA]

The VP's will has less play money...still can pay for the basics.

The average worker will have less money for food, less money for their mortgage, less money for utilities, less money for medical, less money for their kids, schools etc......you get the picture.

The ship is sinking fast. Sorry to be so darn negative.

Respectfully....

During last Thursday's S.1113(e) hearing all of the attorneys, except ALPA's counsel Richard Seltzer, argued that the court should take equitable considerations into consideration.

However, the S.1113(e) statute only refers to whether the relief is essential, which is clearly the case especially with oil now above $53 per barrel in NYMEX trading.

I believe union attorneys did raise some good points about management's somewhat low pay cuts, but on the vastly more important issue of the economic need for relief counsel miserably failed. The more questions the attorneys asked chief financial officer Dave Davis, the stronger management's case became before Judge Mitchell.

For example, when one attorney suggested to Davis the company could reject an aircraft due in the first quarter of 2005, which could provide cash flow relief, Davis made the attonrey look foolish. Davis said the first problem with this idea is that it results in even greater furloughs and secondly it does not help the Company's cash position in the short run.

Why? Because the revenue decrease from the loss of an aircraft is immediate, while the resulting cost reductions take time for staffing and facilities to be adjusted. Furthermore, the layoffs could increase costs in the short term because of severance pay and unemployment considerations.

Testimony is expected to be completed tomorrow and in my opinion, unless an attorney can establish that the carrier does not need the requested S.1113(e) interim relief to survive, I believe the judge will rule in favor of the company, as he did on virtaully every issue in the first bankruptcy proceeding.
