 GRETA CRAWFORD V. MSPB                                      2


 moves for reconsideration of her previously rejected opening
 brief.

     Concerning her brief, Federal Circuit Rule 32(c) states
 “[a]n informal brief must be prepared on a form provided by
 the clerk.” Additionally, the Practice Note to Federal Rules
 of Appellate Procedure 25 explains that “[t]he clerk may
 reject material submitted for filing that does not
 substantially conform with the Federal Rules of Appellate
 Procedure and the Federal Circuit Rules. The clerk will
 issue a rejection letter advising of the nature of the
 nonconformity and guidelines for resubmission.”

     Concerning Crawford’s motion for preliminary relief,
 without prejudicing the ultimate determination by a merits
 panel in this case, we determine that she has not met her
 burden to obtain the relief sought.

     Upon consideration thereof,

     IT IS ORDERED THAT:

     (1) The motion to modify the caption is granted. The
 revised official caption is reflected above.

      (2) The motion for reconsideration is denied. Craw-
 ford must submit a corrected brief prepared on Federal
 Circuit Form 11 Informal Brief (form enclosed) within 28
 days of the date of this order. The Board should calculate
 its brief due date from the date of filing of the petitioner's
 brief when it is filed on the required form.

     (3) The motion for preliminary relief is denied.
