Catalan term or phrase: estimada

This is for a document explaining how to apply for a certain licence. My question is - can this mean accepted in this case? That would be the most logical meaning, if it is on fact possible. I can't find anything that supports this idea. Or might it mean "resolved" - which doesn't fit so nicely?

"Transcorregut aquest termini sense una resolució expressa, la sol•licitud s’entendrà estimada."

upheld

Explanation:
It would be helpful to know what kind of "sol·licitud" we're talking about. If it's something like a "petition", then "upheld" is probably what you're looking for.

Yes, I think "allowed" is the one to go for (not "upheld" in this case).
