Task: songer_majvotes

What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals.
Your task is to determine the number of judges who voted in favor of the disposition favored by the majority. Judges who concurred in the outcome but wrote a separate concurring opinion are counted as part of the majority. For most cases this variable takes the value "2" or "3." However, for cases decided en banc the value may be as high as 15. Note: in the typical case, a list of the judges who heard the case is printed immediately before the opinion. If there is no indication that any of the judges dissented and no indication that one or more of the judges did not participate in the final decision, then all of the judges listed as participating in the decision are assumed to have cast votes with the majority. The number of majority votes recorded includes district judges or other judges sitting by designation who participated on the appeals court panel. If there is an indication that a judge heard argument in the case but did not participate in the final opinion (e.g., the judge died before the decision was reached), that judge is not counted in the number of majority votes.

PER CURIAM.
The National Labor Relations Board has filed with us a petition for the enforcement of one of its orders based, in accordance with a common practice, upon a stipulation of the parties for a consent decree. The stipulation was executed on October 1, 1938, and the Board’s order entered on November 26, 1938. This petition was filed on June 1, 1939, more than eight months after the execution of the stipulation, which provided in the first paragraph that the order should be entered “forthwith”.
The petition is under Section 10 (e) of the Act, which gives the court “power to grant such temporary relief or restraining order as it deems just and proper, and to make and enter upon the pleadings, testimony, and proceedings set forth in such transcript a decree enforcing, modifying, and enforcing as so modified, or setting aside in whole or in part the order of the Board.” Entry of the Court’s order is a matter of discretion. If the Board had applied promptly as it was required to do by the terms of the stipulation we should have, as a matter of course, entered the order. But it is not alleged that the respondents are disregarding the Board’s order, or have failed to comply with its provisions. Practice under this Act should be prompt in order to make it effective. The long delay in this case had the effect of making unenforceable the provision in the stipulation that the order should be entered forthwith. If the respondents fail to comply with the Board’s order it can again apply to us for enforcement.
The petition is dismissed.
