If American’s allegations are true, the complainant may have committed multiple federal felonies, wire fraud and aggravated identity theft, the latter of which carries a 2-year mandatory minimum prison sentence. Counsel may have advised their client to drop the DOT complaint to avoid attracting the attention of federal prosecutors.

Someone finally explained to them their exposure, as I’m sure they used a chunk of those ill-gained miles for free flights before they got caught, and could be on the hook for the value of the same. Best to go away and hope they don’t get sued or that American makes a criminal complaint.

Why did these idiots file a complaint in the first place if they were on such shaky ground? Arrogance? Greed? Anger at having adverse action taken against them?

It’s a common tactic to avoid going through to a final ruling, losing, and having the prevailing party’s attorney’s fees and costs assessed against you, or perhaps having sanctions imposed against the losing party.
