IN RE: ELIGIBILITY OF FRANCISCO REYNOZO, FRITZ CONLE, FRANKLIN GALLEGOS,
CRESECIO DIAZ, TONY GONZALEZ, SALVADOR CARRILLO, STEVE GARCIA, ARNOLD BERNAL,
MICHAEL JOHNSTON, and ROBERTO SANCHEZ. On October 13, 2005, we issued our decision in 2005 ESD 15, finding Francisco Reynozo and Fritz Conle ineligible for nomination as delegate or alternate delegate to the 2006 IBT Convention. The decision found the remaining members who were the subject of the protest eligible. On October 14, 2005, we received a fax from Franklin Gallegos, President of Local Union 890, requesting that we reverse our finding that Francisco Reynozo is ineligible to run for delegate or alternate delegate. The fax included a letter dated October 12, 2005, signed by IBT General President James P. Hoffa, stating that Francisco Reynozo should be deemed in continuous good standing for the relevant eligibility period. We attach both letters to this decision. Based on this new information, we STAY our decision in 2005 ESD 15 with respect to Francisco Reynozo only. All interested parties have until 5:00 p.m. EDT, Thursday, October 20, 2005, to produce evidence with respect to Reynozo’s eligibility to be nominated for delegate or alternate delegate. The evidence to be produced must include the following:
Evidence not supplied by the date and time referenced above will not be considered. The time period for filing an appeal will be tolled with respect to Reynozo and will commence to run when we dissolve this stay. The appeal period with respect to all other Respondents is not affected by this stay. Any interested party not satisfied with this determination may request a hearing before the Election Appeals Master within two (2) working days of receipt of this decision. The parties are reminded that, absent extraordinary circumstances, no party may rely upon evidence that was not presented to the Office of the Election Supervisor in any such appeal. Requests for a hearing shall be made in writing, shall specify the basis for the appeal and shall be served upon: Kenneth Conboy Copies of the request for hearing must be served upon the parties, as well as
upon the Election Supervisor for the International Brotherhood of Teamsters,
1725 K Street, N.W., Suite 1400, Washington, D.C. 20007-5135, all within the
time prescribed above. A copy of the protest must accompany the request for
