ORDER

LOURIE, Circuit Judge.

The Director of the Office of Personnel Management submitted a petition for review of a Merit Systems Protection Board decision issued by a single member of the Board. At that time the Board's rules did not provide a mechanism for the issuance of a decision in such circumstances. On August 5, 1994, the Board issued a final rule, 5 CFR Sec. 1200.3, providing for such issuance.

Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED THAT:

(1) The Board's May 4, 1994 decision is vacated.

1

(2) The case is remanded to the Board for issuance of a decision in conformance with its rules.
