ORDER
The Employer filed a request for special permission to appeal the Regional
Director’s denial of more than seven days from the close of the hearing in which to file a
post-hearing brief. The request for special permission to appeal is granted, and the
appeal is granted on the merits.1 The post-hearing briefs to the Regional Director will
be due two weeks from the close of the record in this case. Accordingly, the due date
for receipt of post-hearing briefs to the Regional Director is extended to December 21,
2016. This extension of time applies to all parties.

1 Contrary to his colleagues, Chairman Pearce would deny the request for special permission to appeal,
finding that the Regional Director did not abuse his discretion in setting the briefing schedule.
