Case: 13-3052 Document: 19 Page: 1 Filed: 02/08/2013 United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ______________________ JOHN BERRY, DIRECTOR, OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT, Petitioner, v. TONY D. HOPPER, Respondent. ______________________ 2013-3052 ______________________ Petition for review of the Merit Systems Protection Board in case no. CH0731090798-I-3. ______________________ ORDER The court reviews the recent docketing of this petition for review and notes that it was docketed in error. Pursuant to
5 U.S.C. § 7703(d)(1), the Director of the Office of Personnel Management may obtain review of a decision of the Merit Systems Protection Board by filing a petition for judicial review. Such a matter is to be docket- ed by this court as a Miscellaneous Docket matter, and if the court in its discretion grants the petition for judicial review, then the court dockets the matter as a regular petition. It appears that this matter should have been first docketed as a Miscellaneous Docket matter. Re- Case: 13-3052 Document: 19 Page: 2 Filed: 02/08/2013 2 JOHN BERRY, DIRECTOR v. TONY HOPPER spondent Tony D. Hopper has responded to the petition in 2013-3052, but the court recently rejected an entry of appearance by the Merit Systems Protection Board be- cause this matter was improperly docketed as a regular petition and the Board was not named as a party. Pursu- ant to Section 7703(d)(1), the Board has the right to appear in the proceeding. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT: This petition is dismissed as improperly docketed, and reopened as Misc. No. 145. Once that matter is opened on CM/ECF, the parties should refile the relevant docket entries within 14 days of such action on CM/ECF. In Misc. No. 145, the Board may file its response to the petition for permission to appeal within 21 days of docket- ing of Misc. No. 145. Thereafter, the court will consider the petition for judicial review pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 7703(d)(1). FOR THE COURT /s/ Jan Horbaly Jan Horbaly Clerk
