Thank you for your 10 year " I will screw myself and show USAPA campaign" ! IMHO you will get nothing out of your mediation for filing costs that will be pennies on the dollar , no damages were awarded and spin it as you may your addingtons that were tossed , yes tossed are wasted money! USAPA is not there to "Advocate" the NIC but AA would why? Avoid a DFR, "oh we tried" and to take the most senior group(EAST) and adjust their longevity down the line, unlike your theory of bumping it up! Nope the EAST will take their next good years and ride off into the sunset, my prediction, 2 more years for your Liberty tie gang swimming stagnated in Phx and the true beneficiaries the natives, rightfully so! All the best!
