The APPA cites first City ofBoston, 41 MLC 119 (2014) [APPA Brief at 4]. As the APPA concedes in a footnote and as the Town pointed out in its initial Memorandum, the CERB actually ruled on the case by dismissing the charges because the three police unions had failed to establish a past practice regarding non-use of assessment centers [APPA Brief at 4 n.3]. See City ofBoston, | id. at 126.
In City ofBoston, 41 MLC 119 (2014), the Commission ruled on charges brought by three of the citys police unions, including that which represents officers holding the rank of patrolman and another which represents officers holding the ranks of sergeant and above.
ARGUMENT The Town first argues that the 1977 Boston School Committee case, the 2010 Worcester Sheriffs case (H.O.), and the 2014 City ofBoston cases are all either cursory or dicta-based or unfounded in their statements or direction that promotional criteria/processes for positions outside the bargaining unit are indeed a mandatory subject.
See most recently CERB decision in City ofBoston, MUP-13-3371, MUP-14-3466, MUP-14-3504 (November 7, 2014); We note generally, however, that we have previously analyzed the extent to which promotions are a mandatory subject of bargaining under Chapter 150E.

See 15 generally, City ofBoston, 41 MLC 119, MUP-13-3371, 14-3466, 14-3504 (November 7, ' | express no opinion on the Towns critique of Boston School Committee and its argument that the decision misuses case law from other jurisdictions because, as discussed below, | agree with the CERBs perspective notwithstanding its reliance on other cases.
