No MB allows for consentual negotiations between the parties, if an agreement is not reached then arbitration kicks in. Silvers order is in force until it is overturned by a higher court. She basically made no ruling as the 9th tied her hands. She did clarify that usapa inherited the Nicolau and can change it as long as they have a legitimate union purpose for doing so, also she told the compny they must ensure usapa has a legitimate union purpose to change the Nicolau.
