If my memory serves me, it was an obscure scenario and had nothing to do with labor.
Emergency relief (1113) just isn’t used to abrogate labor deals in normal bankruptcy proceedings. The company would need to demonstrate that they will fail without this relief.
AA pilots had a 1113(c) motion imposed on them in 2012 after they rejected their contract offer in BK. IIRC The judge rejected the first attempt by AA but imposed the second.
