The client, a law enforcement officer with the Department of Veterans Affairs, received a notice of proposed removal regarding allegations of serious misconduct. Pursuant to a written response and oral reply, the agency sustained the removal, and the client was removed from federal service.
An appeal to the MSPB was filed on the client’s behalf, challenging the removal. Pursuant to the litigation portion of the appeal, the agency RESCINDED the removal, a settlement was negotiated, and the client transferred to another federal agency.
