1 As there are no longer special appeals to the Board in the representation case context (see
79 Fed. Reg. 74382), we shall treat the Petitioner’s Special Appeal as a Request for Review. See
Sec. 102.65(c) and 102.67(c) of the Board’s Rules and Regulations.
2 The Employer’s request for expedited review and impoundment of the ballots is denied.
This case involves the Board’s Final Rule on representation case procedures, with which
Acting Chairman Miscimarra disagrees for the reasons expressed in his dissenting views in the
Final Rule. 79 Fed. Reg. 74308, at 74430-74460 (December 15, 2014) (dissenting views of
Members Miscimarra and Johnson). In the instant case, however, Acting Chairman Miscimarra
agrees with denying review of the Regional Director’s decision to direct a mail ballot election
and to deny the Employer’s request for expedited review or to impound the ballots.
