So a law suit in undoubtedly on the way. This would most likely put a stop to this imaginary 45 day clock. That being said, that 45 day clock means absolutely zero. This arbitrator has nothing to do with the Atlas union. He can only tell the Southern Union what to do. Southern can not dictate to the Atlas Union what the combined Seniority list is going to look like. So you'll still have to wait until the Atlas arbitrator rules. That will be later this summer or in the fall. Then the unions will have to get together come up with a seniority list then submit it, then the 9 month clock will start. At that point the unresolved articled go to an Arbitrator. That doesn't mean they will be resolved at that time, it only means those articles go to him/her. They could take 6 months, could take a year, who knows. At that point you'll probably get the JCBA. So earliest next summer, most likely end of next year. Unless AAWW management decides to get with the times and actually just forget that whole mess and actually negotiate a contract, nothing is close. There are tons of posts on this very specific matter already, idk why you started a new thread.
