Legal Question in Employment Law in New York

Laborer's Unions

Hi, Is it possible to settle with a union for unpaid dues? They have filed a complant, asking for principle, interest, costs, attorneys fees, liquidated damges, etc.? Does the employer generally have to pay the entire amount asked for or is there anyway to negotiate a lower amount? Thanks.
