 1 Section 1. Subdivision 4 of section 707 of the labor law, as amended
 2 by section 5 of part O of chapter 56 of the laws of 2010, is amended to
 3 read as follows:
 4 4. [Any person aggrieved by a final order of the board granting or
 5 denying in whole or in part the relief sought may obtain a review of
 6 such order in the supreme court of the county where the unfair labor
 7 practice in question was alleged to have been engaged in or wherein such
 8 person resides or transacts business by filing in such court a written
 9 petition praying that the order of the board be modified or set aside,
 10 or if such court be on vacation or in recess, then to the supreme court
 11 of any county adjoining the county wherein the unfair labor practice in
 12 question occurred or wherein any such person resides or transacts busi-
 13 ness. A copy of such petition shall be forthwith served upon the board,
 14 and thereupon the aggrieved party shall file in the court a transcript
 15 of the entire record in the proceeding, certified by the board, includ-
 16 ing the pleading and testimony and order of the board. Upon such filing,
 17 the court shall proceed in the same manner as in the case of an applica-
 18 tion by the board under subdivision one of this section, and shall have
 19 the same exclusive jurisdiction to grant to the board such temporary
 20 relief or restraining order as it deems just and proper, and in like
 21 manner to make and enter a decree enforcing, modifying and enforcing as
 22 so modified, or setting aside in whole or in part the order of the
 23 board; and the findings of the board as to the facts shall in like
 24 manner be conclusive.] (a) Final orders of the board made pursuant to
 25 this article shall be conclusive against all parties to its proceedings
 26 and persons who have had an opportunity to be parties to its proceedings
 27 unless reversed or modified in proceedings for enforcement or judicial
 28 review as provided under this subdivision. Final orders shall be: (i)
