IN RE: MATTHEW JANICKE, Protestor.
	Protest Decision 2011 ESD 161
	Issued: March 14, 2011
	OES Case No. P-158-022211-FW
Matthew Janicke, member and delegate candidate of Local Union 63, filed a pre-election protest pursuant to Article XIII, Section 2(b) of the Rules for the 2010-2011 IBT International Union Delegate and Officer Election ("Rules"). The protest alleged that he was denied campaign access to the employee parking lot of United Stationers in violation of the Rules.
By email sent March 9, 2011, Janicke requested to withdraw the protest.
Finding that permitting withdrawal is consistent with the purposes of the Rules, we deem this protest WITHDRAWN.
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

	Latham & Watkins
	885 Third Avenue, Suite 1000
