James L. Martin, Petitioner, v. National Transportation Safety Board and Federal Aviationadministration, Respondents, 79 F.3d 169 (D.C. Cir. 1996)

Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit - 79 F.3d 169 (D.C. Cir. 1996) Feb. 7, 1996

Before: HENDERSON, RANDOLPH and TATEL, Circuit Judges.

JUDGMENT

PER CURIAM.


This case was heard on the record of the National Transportation Safety Board (Board) and on the briefs and arguments by counsel. The court has determined that the issues presented occasion no need for a published opinion. See D.C. Cir. Rule 36(b). It is therefore

ORDERED that the petition for review be denied. Because the Federal Aviation Administration was substantially justified in pursuing an enforcement against the petitioner, the petitioner is not entitled to attorney's fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act, 5 U.S.C. § 504.

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 41(a) (1).
