She may rule that the firing did not comport with the law - but that giving them their jobs back isn’t one of the possible results of that (because it isn’t that he couldn’t fire them in the first place… it was that he didn’t follow the correct process in doing so).

So eventual victory would more likely result in 30 additional days of pay (or some other penalty)
