I have considered filing a suit in small claims court here in Michigan against Comair ALPA for my 240 dollars. I now longer work for them, so I should not be responsible for the merger fund, if they merge (which won't happen) it should be funded by pilots on the current seniority list

It is 25 bucks to file the lawsuit and at the very least it will stir things up, plus it is a matter of principle.
