MESA Delta Lawsuit: No record of filing.
From the Plane Buzz Banter, by Holly Hagaman.
"Last week Mesa hit the floor again, as shares dropped back another 13%, ending the week at a whopping 59 cents.
Meanwile, an important note about the lawsuit that the company told certain media outlets earlier this month that it had filed against Delta Air Lines.
No one can find a lawsuit.
You may recall that after Delta Air Lines notified Mesa that it plans to stop using Mesa to fly a portion of its contract flying, Mesa General Counsel Brian Gillman was quoted in any number of media outlets, including USA Today and the Associated Press, as saying the airline had filed suit against Delta Air Lines in Federal Court. To be more specific, he said the airline had filed suit on Monday, April 7.
Only one problem with this. No one has been able to find the lawsuit.
I asked my attorneys who are representing me against Mesa to look for it.
Nothing. Several subscribers who also have access to the PACER system (a database of all lawsuits that are filed) also report the same thing. Searches have been done for Mesa Air Group, Delta Air Lines, Freedom Airlines.
Nothing.
Emails I sent this week to Mesa Air Group CEO Jonathan Ornstein and the airline's VP of Corporate Communications Paul Skellon asking for the suit's case number and other filing information remained unanswered as of our posting.
Meanwhile, Mesa held its annual meeting this week. Nothing of note happened, as best we can tell, which means the shareholders agreed to keep the current board of directors in office.
Amazing."
I'm not really all that surprised.
