Order Accepting Appeal and Establishing Procedural Schedule

    Issued September 29, 1994.

    Before Commissioners:

    Name(s) of Petitioner(s): Jesse Rieck.
    Type of Determination: Closing.
    Date of Filing of Appeal Papers: September 26, 1994.
    Categories of Issues Apparently Raised:
    1. Effect on postal services [39 U.S.C. Sec. 404(b)(2)(C)].
    2. Effect on the community [39 U.S.C. Sec. 404(b)(2)(A)].
    After the Postal Service files the administrative record and the 
Commission reviews it, the Commission may find that there are more 
legal issues than those set forth above. Or, the Commission may find 
that the Postal Service's determination disposes of one or more of 
those issues.
    The Postal Reorganization Act requires that the Commission issue 
its decision within 120 days from the date this appeal was filed (39 
U.S.C. Sec. 404 (b)(5)). In the interest of expedition, in light of the 
120-day decision schedule, the Commission may request the Postal 
Service to submit memoranda of law on any appropriate issue. If 
requested, such memoranda will be due 20 days from the issuance of the 
request and the Postal Service shall serve a copy of its memoranda on 
the petitioners. The Postal Service may incorporate by reference in its 
briefs or motions, any arguments presented in memoranda it previously 
filed in this docket. If necessary, the Commission also may ask 
petitioners or the Postal Service for more information.

October 11, 1994.
