Passman & Kaplan Obtains Relief in Veterans Preference Case

Passman & Kaplan recently obtained relief for an employee under the Veterans Employment Opportunity Act (VEOA). In MSPB Docket No. CH-3330-14-0445-I-1, the employee (a preference eligible veteran) was not selected for a GS-13 position. After filing an appeal at the MSPB, Passman & Kaplan successfully settled the case. Under the settlement agreement, the employee will receive the GS-13 promotion position, and reimbursement of attorneys’ fees and costs. Our client was represented by Passman & Kaplan Founding Principal Joseph V. Kaplan and Passman & Kaplan Senior Associate Andrew J. Perlmutter.
