“Can’t take this seriously as it starts with a false premise. There was no overbooking.”

And they can deny boarding but once a passenger takes his seat it is a different rule.

It's interesting that the letter to employees from the CEO claims that they were following "denial of boarding" procedures with this gentleman when he refused to be denied boarding.

So, I guess the question a jury will have to answer will be: Was this passenger being denied boarding even though he had already boarded? What's the correct definition of "boarding"?
