The contract says;
(a) .................................................. or
(b) The pilot may be given a legal rest period. In this case..............
I read that as they have already provided you a legal rest, but you need more. We can agree to disagree on that.
I have had more than one DO agree with this.
I agree with you that we can't let others tell us what the contract says without reading it ourselves. That is why I am pointing out that our contract doesn't say the DO can extended you to 16 hours and you just have to accept it our call in fatigued as you seem to be saying.
Talk to the DO. Ask them to shorten the duty period or ask for a legal rest and take it from there.
