Next month, a Connecticut jury will hear a $3.5 million claim against Executive Jet Management (EJM) in a case that is already sending a chill through the business aviation community.

The divorced father had with him his two children–Victoria and Henry, then age 6 and 7–whom the courts had placed in the custody of the mother, Cornelia Streeter, of Essex County, Mass.
