Stoglin v. Merit Systems Protection Board

Case: 14-3100 Document: 18 Page: 1 Filed: 11/05/2014 NOTE: This order is nonprecedential. United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ______________________ COREY DEMOND STOGLIN, Petitioner, v. MERIT SYSTEMS PROTECTION BOARD, Respondent. ______________________ 2014-3100 ______________________ Petition for review of the Merit Systems Protection Board in No. CH-3330-12-0390-I-2. ______________________ ON MOTION ______________________ ORDER The Department of Labor moves to reform the caption to designate the Merit Systems Protection Board (“Board”) as the respondent and for an extension of time for the Board to file its response brief. Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. § 7703(a)(2), the Board is desig- nated as the respondent when the Board’s decision con- cerns 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. Case: 14-3100 Document: 18 Page: 2 Filed: 11/05/2014 2 STOGLIN v. MSPB Here, the Board dismissed Corey Demond Stoglin’s peti- tion as untimely. Thus, the Board is the proper respond- ent in this petition for review. Because Stoglin has not timely filed a brief as re- quired by this court's September 11, 2014 order, his petition is dismissed for failure to prosecute. Thus, the motion for an extension of time is moot. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT: (1) The motions are granted to the extent that the Board is substituted for the Department of Labor. The revised official caption is reflected above. (2) The petition is dismissed for failure to timely file a brief. FOR THE COURT /s/ Daniel E. O’Toole Daniel E.
