US EditionInjunction denied, lawsuit can proceed in B.C. air ambulance dispute: judge
THOMPSON-NICOLA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, JUL 8 – A court allowed a lawsuit over alleged procurement bias to proceed despite denying Summit Helicopters' injunction, with a $544.5 million contract awarded to Ascent Helicopters.
- Philadelphia city officials obtained a court order requiring airport dispatch personnel to resume their duties by midnight on July 9 amid the ongoing AFSCME District Council 33 strike.
- The strike began on July 1 and led the city to file three injunctions covering 911 call center, water department, and airport dispatch workers, citing serious picket line misconduct.
- During a July 8 hearing, a judge ruled the 911 dispatch injunction would remain indefinite and highlighted airports' fragility while setting rules limiting strike activities.
- The city accused union members of damaging vehicles and throwing bottles, and stressed the need for at least eight dispatchers as airport staff shortages grow due to the strike.
- Negotiations between the union and the city are scheduled to resume on July 8 at 2 p.m., aiming to resolve the strike amid legal restrictions and operational challenges.
