2 REBISH v. MSPB
employing agency is designated as the respondent when the Board reaches the merits of the underlying case. Here, the Board dismissed Jimmi Tyler Rebish’s petition for lack of jurisdiction. Thus, the Board is the proper respondent in this petition for review. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT: (1) The motion to reform the caption is granted. The revised official caption is reflected above. (2) The motion for an extension of time to file the re- sponse brief is granted to the extent that the Board should calculate the due date for its brief from the date of filing of this order.
