Battista Withdraws Nomination
I don't have official word yet, but it appears that Robert Battista, former Chairman of the NLRB, has asked President Bush to withdraw his nomination for a new term on the Board. Battista apparently has accepted a position in Littler Mendelsohn's D.C. office. Not a big surprise given that he had zero chance of getting confirmed before the next election and not much more of a chance after that.
UPDATE: The press release is here.

Robert Battista is also joining the Littler law firm.
