IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS
DALLAS DIVISION
AMERICAN ALLIANCE FOR
EQUAL RIGHTS,
Plaintiff,
v. Case No. 3:24-CV-1209-D
SOUTHWEST AIRLINES CO.,
Defendant.
JOINT RESPONSE REGARDING
THE COURT’S SUA SPONTE ORDER
After conferring, the parties do not oppose the disposition proposed by the Court in
its May 14, 2025 Order [Dkt. 68] and agree that this Court should enter final judgment in the
Alliance’s favor for nominal damages of $0.01. Though that judgment makes the Alliance the
prevailing party, this Court need not award attorney’s fees or costs because the parties have
settled the amount that Southwest will pay the Alliance for fees and costs confidentially out
of court.
