My understanding is a court ruled again that a joint seniority list has to be produced in the next several weeks and that will then start a 9 month arbitration and then boom, a new CBA? Or will the union appeal this and the cycle will continue?

My understanding is that the last time that we went through this "9 month process" that it actually took a couple of years. It's anyone's guess how long it will take for a new CBA. However, in light of the current state of the industry, I wouldn't expect many positive changes in the next CBA. The company doesn't need to increase pay / QOL when there are 1,000 regional pilots on the street this month, no one else is hiring, and the rumors of furloughs at every other airline are rampant.
