I know the bankruptcy judge in our 1985 bankruptcy was a RR appointee and the one in
our 2003 bankruptcy was from GHWB. We got screwed big time ever time. In the early 80's we agreed on concessions that the company promised to repay, my personal stake was over $80,000. Then in 1985 the company went bankrupt and the judge terminated our pension and we got 13 cents on the dollar for our money. The bankers got all their money and the management walked out with their golden parachutes.
