The Board ordered the Respondent to cease and desist from refusing to bar- gain and to bargain with the Union. On June 21, 1993, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Cir- cuit enforced the Board’s Order.2 On December 6, 1993, the Respondent filed a peti- tion for a writ of certiorari with the United States Su- preme Court. On February 28, 1994, the Court granted the Respondent’s petition. By letter dated April 20, 1994, the Union advised the Respondent that, because of the passage of time and employee turnover since the election, it was dis- claiming any interest in representing the employees in the bargaining unit. In view of the Union’s representa- tion, the Solicitor General, on behalf of the Board, moved that the Court vacate the judgment of the court of appeals as moot and remand the case to the court with instructions to remand it to the Board to vacate the Board’s Order and its certification of the Union. On May 31, 1994, the Supreme Court granted the So- licitor General’s motion, vacated the court’s judgment as moot, and remanded the case to the court of ap- peals. On September 15, 1994, the court of appeals re- manded the case to the Board with instructions to va- cate the Board’s Order and the certification on which the Order was based. The Board has accepted the court’s remand. The Board has delegated its authority in this pro- ceeding to a three-member panel. Pursuant to the instructions of the court of appeals, the Board enters the following ORDER It is ordered that the Board’s Order of July 24, 1992, in Case 8–CA–24277 is vacated.
