http://www.bhol.co.il/news/954394Omet Chadad, a rising star in the Israeli law scene, will be representing Sholom Ber Sorotzkin and other passengers in a suit against ElAl. This guy is from Yankel Weinrot's office. He successfully defended Moshe Montag (Deputy Mayor of Bet Shemesh) in a very complicated bribery case. He handled Yitzchak Pindrus (Deputy Mayor of Jerusalem) appeal to run for Mayor of Elad, but unfortunately lost in Bagatz. He is known as the sharpest mind in Israeli civil law today, inheriting Yankel's stellar reputation.
ElAl freaks out, and asks for a meeting so a settlement can be reached before he drags them through court and causes a government level scandal (the Chareidim are currently the swing members in Netanyahu's shaky government after Lieberman's resignation).
And this is after ElAl themselves threatened legal action against "certain violent passengers"!
This story is shaking the transportation ministry, while Sholom Ber has sworn revenge for being fooled into announcing on the plane that they will land before Shabbos. This is far from over....
