I'm fairly sure there will be a judgment large enough to force ALPA into bankruptcy...which will then discharge the jury's award. But the time for "go away" money has long since passed.

OK, I'm not an attorney nor did I sleep at Holiday Inn last night, but I thought you could still settle at any time with both parties concurrence. This is a separate trial now that has not yet occurred so that window is still open even if I am wrong.
That's also a pretty big leap that there will be a large award. Juries are notoriously unpredictable, especially in cases where it is not black and white.
