NOTE: This order is nonprecedential United States Court of AppeaIs for the FederaI Circuit DONNA MARIE CONNER, Plaintiff-Appellant, V. UNITED STATES, Defendcmt-Appellee. 2010-5106 Appea1 from the United States Court of Federa1 Claims in case no. 09-CV-880, Senior Judge Robert H. I'Iodges, Jr. ON MOTION Before LOURIE, Circuit Judge. 0 R D E R Donna Marie Conner requests that her case be se- lected for mediation The United States moves for an extension of time to file its brief Conner opposes. Conner submits a document titled "Ru1e 8(a)(a) Motion for Injunc- tion Against Department of Justice . . . /Rep1y to Defen- dants." The United States moves for an extension of time to respond to Conner’s motion CONNER V. US 2 With respect to Conner’s request that her case be se- lected for mediation, Conner’s case is not eligible for the court’s mediation program. On1y cases where all parties are represented by counsel are eligible for the program. See Appellate Mediation Program Guideline 2. Thus, the request is denied. Conner’s motion requesting an injunction appears to primarily consist of arguments responding to the brief of the United States. Conner also seeks an injunction "for removing my case from the Department of Justice and back to the U.S. Coui't of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, so that case can advance." Conner’s case is presently before this court and not before the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice represents the United States in this case, but this court will issue a decision in this case. Thus, Conner’s motion for an injunction is moot and her submission will be treated as her reply brief. Accordingly, lT IS ORDERED THATI (1) Conner’s request that her case be selected for me- diation is denied. (2) The United States’ motion for an extension of time to file its brief is granted - (3) Conner’s motion for an injunction is moot. Her submission will be treated as her reply brief. A copy of Conner’s submission and this order will be transmitted to the merits panel assigned to decide this case. (4) The United States’ motion for an extension of time to respond to Conner’s motion is moot. 3 SEP 0 9'2U1[] Date cc: Donna Marie Conner S Russell J. Upton, Esq. CONNER V.
