Dear Mr. Gindhart:

4
This is with reference to my recent petition for review of:  MERIT SYSTEMS PROTECTION BOARD NY07528701691-1, as per the attached.


5
After careful review of the Form 8-Petitioner's Statement Concerning Discrimination and the Guide for PRO SE Petitioners, I hereby withdraw my petition/case.


6
I have bona fide claims of discrimination based on sex and reprisal, both raised before the MSPB.  I am unwilling to abandon them forever and have decided to proceed before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).  Am I entitled to a refund of any part of the $100.00 I previously forwarded to you?


7
Thank you for your kind attention and assistance.


8
Sincerely,


9
/s/ Ruth L. Young
