[quote]A French judge Friday ordered the seizure of Sfr2 million ($1.2 million) in bank settlement plan receipts owed to Crossair from ticket sales in France. The seizure was ordered at the behest of Air Lib, a Crossair spokesperson confirmed to ATWOnline. The action, which was reported by the Associated Press, is part of Air Lib's campaign to pressure Crossair into accepting liability for funds owed by former Air Lib owner SAirGroup. Air Lib argues that Crossair is effectively the successor company to SAirGroup and therefore is responsible for promised funding by SAir and for damages suffered by Air Lib because of mismanagement by its former owner. It is suing Crossair for about eur517 million ($460 million).<hr></blockquote>
