Refuse to Be Ignored -- Attend Court
Updated: January 17, 2006
Collective action, bringing democracy alive by organizing and protesting en mass is more powerful than any legal or legislative action. Lawmakers and interpreters of the law reflect the will of the people when the people refuse to be ignored.
Refuse to be ignored and come to United’s Plan of Reorganization Confirmation Hearings:
January 18th - January 20th
January 18th start: 10:30 am CST
Attend all or part of the Court hearings to help stop a few executives from running away with our money...

Downtown Chicago
219 S. Dearborn
Blue Line Jackson ‘L’ stop (no transfer from O’Hare)
Use the following guidelines to help make an impression on the court:
- Dress as though you are pass-riding in First Class, but do not wear a suit -- it's important that you do not simply look like another attorney.
- The court will not allow any cameras beyond the lobby of the court building. There are storage lockers for your camera should you want to bring a camera to the court.
- Double check to ensure your cell phone is turned off.
- Be very aware that there are media reporters, United attorneys, representatives of other creditors and members of United management PR in the court building.
- When in the court room, once Judge Wedoff enters, pause all conversations and any other distractions.
- To make clear that you are a front-line employee: wear your Union pin.
