No comment on this case, but AS once upon a time had a Captain who sued the company for porn in the cockpit due to a "hostile work environment." She got a rumored 7 figure settlement in addition to Captain "medical" retirement.
While she was beached the Company had her writing a "tour guide" for pilots to use with PAs. She subsequently copyrighted it even though she wrote it on Company time.
When her husband was killed on Mt. Everest, she had the gall to send a friend around the pilot group collecting "donations" for her "orphaned children's college fund."
It just shows you what people are capable of.
