Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit - 923 F.2d 201 (D.C. Cir. 1990) Nov. 23, 1990

Before HARRY T. EDWARDS, RUTH BADER GINSBURG and HENDERSON, Circuit Judges.

ORDER

PER CURIAM.


Upon consideration of the motion to dismiss, and the opposition thereto, it is

ORDERED that the motion be granted upon the Federal Communications Commission's assurance that it "considers itself bound by the terms of [this court's March 19, 1990] order," Motion to Dismiss at 1 n. 1, and that it thus will take no action regarding appellant's booster transmitter pending full Commission review of its staff's decision. The Commission's procedures have not yet run their course. See Washington Ass'n for Television & Children v. FCC, 712 F.2d 677, 680-81 (D.C. Cir. 1983); Spanish Int'l Broadcasting Co. v. FCC, 385 F.2d 615, 625 (D.C. Cir. 1967). Furthermore, Nelson's arguments do not justify waiving the requirement that it exhaust its administrative remedies prior to seeking judicial review. See Randolph-Sheppard Vendors of America v. Weinberger, 795 F.2d 90, 107-08 (D.C. Cir. 1986).

The Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after disposition of any timely petition for rehearing. See D.C. Cir. Rule 15.
