Court Explores New Frontier On The OCI Front

In Axiom Resources Mgmt., Inc. v. U.S. (Sept. 28, 2007), the Court of Federal Claims held that an alleged unequal access to information organizational conflict of interest had not been adequately mitigated because, inter alia, the mitigation plan was not enforceable, as by court order. Also, before determining whether to issue an injunction, the court requested an amicus brief from the Federal Trade Commission Bureau of Competition on several issues, including whether the awardee should be required to divest several contracts, and whether non-disclosure agreements, perhaps similar to those typically involved in establishing appropriate firewalls, unduly restrict future competition.

The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) published a final rule amending 14 CFR Part 234 that fundamentally changes how airlines report the causes of flight delays and cancellations. Effective October 19, 2026, the rule implements Section 511(b) of the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 by creating a new reporting category, the “Section 511(b) category,” for ten specific events that Congress determined are not attributable to airline control. The rule simultaneously narrows the existing "Air Carrier" reporting category by expressly excluding those same ten events.
