STATEMENT ON CONTRACT STATUS
On Tuesday, August 10, 2010, Local 689’s attorney, Mr. Doug Taylor and WMATA’s attorney, Mr. Robert Ames, appeared before the judge and presented arguments to the judge. The judge instructed our attorney and the Authority’s attorney to provide additional information for him to consider.
The attorneys have 30 days to submit the information to the judge and he will make a ruling 15 days after he gets the information.
Although it is not etched in stone, we expect to have a decision from the judge sometime within the next 45 days. As always, we will announce the date and time of the next hearing. We hope to see you there.
