The Vaad Hakohol presented a settlement agreement that appointed a new Vaad HaKashrus that will run the CHK hechsher along with all the Rabbonim of the Beis Din. This settlement agreement was co-signed by a majority of the Rabbonim of the Beis Din (Rabbi Schwei and Rabbi Braun).

In the meantime, all money belonging to Rabbi Osdoba's Vaad HaKashrus, together with all proceeds of the CHK hechsher, must be turned over to the Court immediately, pending the Court's final decision.
