MERIT SYSTEMS PROTECTION BOARD, Respondent. __________________________ 2013-3003 __________________________ Petition for review of the Merit Systems Protection Board in case no. DA0752120158-I-1. __________________________ ON MOTION __________________________ ORDER The Department of Justice moves to recaption to name the Merit Systems Protection Board as respondent. Mr. Baney opposes. Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. § 7703(a)(2), the Board is designated as the respondent when the Board's decision concerns the procedure or jurisdiction of the Board. The employing agency is designated as the respondent when the Board reaches the merits of the underlying case.

The Board s responsive brief is due within 21 days of the date of filing of this order. FOR THE COURT /s/ Jan Horbaly Jan Horbaly Clerk s21
