The net effect of the "set aside" is that his renewal has not been
decided. As K1MAN and others have pointed out he retains his right to
operate on his old license until it is decided.

So... I don't think that the "set aside" is the same as a rejection.
They are currently just thinking about what they intend to do. (Well,
really they are thinking about how they intend to do it.) Actually, I
think they are waiting for the FO to become final so they can use it to
justify pulling his ticket.

Once the FO becomes final, then they can use that as justification for
the denial of the renewal. Assuming Baxter hasn't filed the appeal
then I expect this to happen within the next few days.

maybe not the court has ruled the basline used to delay was not leegal
if baxter has even sent a letter sayin i intend to apeal that is likely
enough to get the license renaewal taken care before the FO is ruled on
finaly

Unless Baxter has an appeal in the mail right now, the FO is final. He
had 30 days to appeal, now it's a debt collection case. I suppose they
may give him a few extra days to avail himself of his rights, but I
don't think it will be a long wait.

So I suspect that the license will be yanked shortly and *then* the fun
will begin..
