O R D E R
Upon consideration of the motion for summary affirmance; and the motion to
hold case in abeyance, the opposition thereto, and the reply, it is
ORDERED that the motion to hold case in abeyance be denied. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that the motion for summary affirmance be denied. See
Taxpayers Watchdog, Inc. v. Stanley, 819 F.2d 294, 297 (D.C. Cir. 1987) (per curiam).
Because the court has determined that summary disposition is not in order, the
Clerk is instructed to calendar this case for presentation to a merits panel.
