SHINSEKI, SECRETARY OF VETERANS AFFAIRS, Respondent-Appellee. __________________________ 2012-7169 __________________________ Appeal from the United States Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims in 12-1171, Judge Robert N. Davis. __________________________ ON MOTION __________________________ ORDER Richard Rebstock submits a “motion to proceed” and a “motion to affirm petition.” The government responds to the motion to affirm. To the extent that his motions seek immediate con- sideration of his case, Rebstock’s appeal is under consid- eration by the court and a disposition will issue in due Case: 12-7169 Document: 35 Page: 2 Filed: 03/13/2013 RICHARD REBSTOCK v. SHINSEKI 2 course. Thus no motion is necessary. To the extent Rebstock is arguing the merits of his case, those argu- ments belong in his brief, not motions. Nonetheless, the court will construe the motion to affirm as a request for supplemental briefing. Upon consideration thereof, IT IS ORDERED THAT: (1) Rebstock’s motions are denied. (2) The motion to affirm is deemed supplemental briefing. Copies shall be transmitted to the merits panel assigned to the case. FOR THE COURT /s/ Jan Horbaly Jan Horbaly Clerk s23
