Cox v. Principi

ORDER

PER CURIAM:

On November 14, 2001, the Court granted, in part, the Secretary’s motion for reconsideration, but reaffirmed its October 6, 2000, opinion, and issued an order that contained additional analysis. On December 5, 2001, the Secretary renewed his motion for a full Court decision, which was contained in the November 7, 2000, motion for reconsideration.

Motions for a full Court decision are not favored. Ordinarily they will not be granted unless such action is necessary to secure or maintain uniformity of the Court’s decisions or to resolve a question of exceptional importance. In this appeal, the Secretary has not shown that either basis exists to warrant a full Court decision.

Upon consideration of the foregoing, the record on appeal, and the Secretary’s motion for a full Court decision, it is

ORDERED that the motion for a full Court decision is denied.
