                            ON MOTION
                        ______________________
                                 ORDER
     Henry E. Gossage moves to stay the briefing sched-
 ules in 2014-3005 and 2014-3079. The Department of
 Labor opposes. In 2014-3078 and 2014-3079, Gossage
 moves for “relief from Void Judgments.” The Department
 of Labor opposes. In 2014-3079, Gossage moves to be
 permitted to proceed “without fees and costs as a Veter-
 an.” The Department of Labor opposes.
     These cases do not involve claims under the Uni-
 formed Service Employment and Reemployment Rights
 Act, and thus the docketing fee is not waived on that
 basis.
    Gossage has failed to respond to the court’s March 6,
 2014 order directing him pay the filing fee or submit the
Case: 14-3005         Document: 21   Page: 3   Filed: 04/10/2014

 GOSSAGE   v. LABOR                                            3

 proper forms to waive the fee in 2014-3005. He has also
 failed to pay the filing fee or submit the proper forms to
 waive the fee in 2014-3078 and 2014-3079.
       Accordingly,
       IT IS ORDERED THAT:
     (1) The motions to stay are denied. Gossage’s infor-
 mal briefs in these three cases are due within 21 days of
 the date of this order.
     (2) The motions for “relief from Void Judgments” are
 denied. To the extent that Gossage raises arguments
 related to the merits of his appeals in those motions, he
 should raise those arguments in his brief.
     (3) The motion to be permitted to proceed “without
 fees and costs as a Veteran” is denied.
     (4) Gossage must pay the filing fee or submit the
 proper forms to waive the fee in 2014-3005, 2014-3078,
 and 2014-3079 within 21 days of the date of this order or
 the petitions will be dismissed.
     (5) No further delays will be allowed and no further
 extensions will be granted for the petitions.
