This would be the only reason I would like to see this one go to trial - especially since, the TSA agent's attorney letter notes that she was following standard operating procedure.
It's not like the TSA can't tell her she can't sue Ms. Alkon, which opens them up for a lawsuit, in my non-lawyerly opinion. If I had to guess, TSA may even push back and say she wasn't following SOP, but then that opens them up to a lawsuit... And it'd be interesting to see the plaintiff need to sue the TSA to allow her to provide the SOP as the main part of her case.
