DECIDED: January 11, 2007

Before MICHEL, Chief Judge, GAJARSA, and DYK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
Petitioner Orlis J. Bush seeks reversal of a final decision by the Merit Systems
Protection Board (Board) that granted his request to withdraw his appeal. On
November 17, 2005, Mr. Bush asked the Board to withdraw his appeal. The Board
obliged and dismissed the appeal with prejudice on December 14, 2005. Mr. Bush has
appealed the Board's action to this court. The Board did not abuse its discretion by
granting this voluntary request. Moreover, Mr. Bush has since settled his dispute with
the Office of Personnel Management and is receiving the benefits he initially sought.
We therefore affirm the decision of the Board in dismissing his appeal.
No costs.
