**I. Introduction and Commission Analysis**

On June 26, 2025, Copper Beech Townhome Communities Twenty One, LLC and Copper Beach Townhome Communities Thirty Six, LLC (Complainants) and the Postal Service jointly moved to stay the current proceedings pending the final decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in *Edwards* v. *Postal Regul. Comm'n,* No. 24-1370 (D.C. Cir., appeal filed Nov. 27, 2024) ( *Edwards* appeal). [^1] In support, the parties note that the Commission, while allowing several of Complainants' claims to proceed, has also held several counts in abeyance pending the resolution of the *Edwards* appeal. [^2] The parties explain that staying the proceedings “will conserve the parties' and the Commission's resources” by avoiding unnecessary or possibly duplicative discovery. Joint Motion at 1-2.

[^1] Joint Motion to Stay Proceedings, June 26, 2025, at 1 (Joint Motion).

For the reasons given by the parties in their joint motion, the Commission will stay the proceedings pending the final decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in the *Edwards* appeal.
