Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Robert Donnell Donaldson seeks review of the Merit Systems
Protection Board’s order dismissing his whistleblower
retaliation appeal. See 5 U.S.C.A. § 7703(b)(1)(B) (West Supp.
2015). Our review of the record discloses that the Board did
not err in concluding that it lacked jurisdiction over
Donaldson’s appeal. Accordingly, we deny the petition for
review for the reasons stated by the Board. Donaldson v. Dep’t
of Homeland Sec., No. DC-1221-12-0356-B-1 (M.S.P.B. Sept. 16,
2014). We further deny Donaldson’s motions for summary
disposition, to strike the Board’s entire brief, and to verify
the record. We dispense with oral argument because the facts
and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before this court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
PETITION DENIED
