v. MERIT SYSTEMS PROTECTION BOARD, Respondent. __________________________

ON MOTION __________________________
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 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 Case: 13-3062 Document: 9 Page: 2 Filed: 03/21/2013
ALRAY SUMPTER, SR. V. MSPB 2
the Board reaches the merits of the underlying case. Here, the Board dismissed Sumpter’s appeal for lack of jurisdic- tion. Thus, the Board is the proper respondent in this petition for review. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT:
The motions are granted. The revised official caption is reflected above. The Board should calculate its brief due date from the date of filing of this order.
