BRIEFING NOTICE

The parties are requested to brief the issues presented in Respondent’s petition for discretionary review, except for those issues that Respondent raised in section VIII of its petition.  See Commission Rule 92(c), 29 C.F.R. § 2200.92(c) (“The Commission will ordinarily not review issues that the Judge did not have the opportunity to pass upon.”).

The parties are advised that when a case is directed for review to consider either the merits or characterization of an item, the appropriateness of the penalty is also subject to review.  Accordingly, the parties may address the amount of the penalty if they so choose.

All briefs are to be filed in accordance with Commission Rule 93.1  The first brief is to be filed within 40 days of this notice.  A party not intending to file a brief shall notify the Commission in accordance with Commission Rule 93.  The time for filing any responsive briefs (or letters filed in lieu of briefs) shall commence on the date of service.

1 The Commission requests that all briefs include an alphabetical table of authorities with references to the pages on which they are cited, and that an asterisk be placed in the left-hand margin of the table to indicate those authorities on which the brief principally relies.  The Commission also requests that copies of cited authority, other than statutes, regulations, case law, law journal articles, and legal treatises, be provided to the Commission and to the opposing party.  Parties should be cautioned that these materials will be considered only if appropriate.
