MEMORANDUM OPINION
ROSEMARY M. COLLYER, District Judge.
American Postal Workers’ Union, AFL-CIO (“APWU” or “Union”) brought this suit alleging that the United States Postal Service (“Postal Service”) breached a collective bargaining agreement between the parties by failing to comply with an arbitration award finding liability. The Postal Service moves to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction, arguing that the matter is not ripe because the arbitration award has been remanded for the determination of a remedy. As explained below, the motion to dismiss will be granted.
