Petition for Review of the Merit Systerns Protection Board in case no. NY0752110301-I-1.
ON MOTION
ORDER
The United States Posta1 Service moves to recaption to designate the Merit Systems Protection Board ("Board") as the respondent.
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. Here, the Board dismissed Ricketts’s petition for lack of jurisdiction.

Accordingly, IT ls 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.
