Accordingly, the respondents, without objection from \nclaimant, request that its pending appeal to the full commission in this claim \nbe stayed.   \n\nSandoval-H302270               2 \n \n  Respondents further request, without objection from Claimant, \nthat the instant appeal of this claim would resume should the Joint Petition \nnot be approved, giving parties sufficient time to resume the briefing \nschedule from that point. \n  After consideration of respondents’ motion with no objections \nby the claimant and all other matters properly before the Commission, we \nfind that the respondents’ motion should be granted. Therefore, the appeal \nof the Administrative Law Judge’s Opinion filed January 3, 2024, is stayed \npending approval of a joint petition to be presented to an Administrative \nLaw Judge for approval. Should the joint petition not be granted, the appeal \nof this claim shall resume, and a new briefing schedule be issued.   \n  IT IS SO ORDERED. \n \n    ____________________________________ \n    SCOTTY DALE DOUTHIT, Chairman \n \n \n    ____________________________________          \n    M.
