ORDER
The Department of the Treasury moves to recaption to
name the Merit Systems Protection Board as respondent,
and for a 21-day extension of time for the MSPB 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 concerns
the procedure or jurisdiction of the Board. The employing
agency is designated as the respondent when the Board

SHERYL TAYLOR V. MSPB 2
reaches the merits of the underlying case. Here, the Board
dismissed Taylor’s appeal for lack of jurisdiction. Thus, the
Board is the proper respondent in this petition for review.
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED THAT:
The motion is granted. The revised official caption is
reflected above. The Board’s responsive brief is due
within 21 days of the date of filing of this order.
