Normally the standing company comment for any company is "we don't comment on pending litigation " but with all the bad press lately maybe they will have something to say.
My feeling is the company made a bad decision and should have used the event as a training scenario assuming the crew made a bad call which has yet to be proven in my opinion. But heaven forbid an actual evacuation is required and the crew fails to act out of job reprisal fear that will be the end of allegiant.
Airlines have captains to make decisions on the items that don't necessarily appear in a company manual or things that aren't exactly covered in training. Otherwise we wouldn't need captains, we would just have 'operators '.
It seems to me with the limited known information that the company made a bad decision. Good luck making your case to a jury. I see the company wanting to settle this quick.
