Pilots dispute over contracts, ask judge to settle

Posted on July 27th, 2010 No Comments

The airline US Airways has asked a federal court to solve a dispute between pilots in the airline.

The carrier is based in Arizona and filed the legal action in a U.S. District Court to solve a contract issue between 4,000 pilots after the merger of America West and US Airways nearly five years ago.

The union of the airline’s pilots did not agree with the move, but the pilots association said that the court should have no jurisdiction on the contract dispute. The dispute involves seniority of the pilots which is important because it changes their schedules and pay.

Iowa cracks down on identity theft and fraud

Posted on July 15th, 2010 No Comments

The Iowa Court of Appeals ruled that a person who uses false identification to commit a fraudulent act can be found guilty of identity theft.

This court decision was decided after a man who was an illegal immigrant used a California woman’s identification number and was caught by authorities.

The state law goes against the federal law in stating that the identification that is being used must only belong to another person and that it was being used to commit fraud. The federal law states that the person caught using the identification must know that it belongs to another person.

If you have been the victim of fraud, contact the Des moines fraud lawyers of LaMarca & Landry, P.C. by calling 877-327-2600.
