MSPB Issues New Appeal Form

By John V. Berry, www.berrylegal.com

The MSPB recently updated their appeal form for federal employees seeking to appeal federal personnel actions.  The form is an update of one that has been in place for some time.  The new form streamlines and reorganizes instructions for appellants, updates areas regarding appellant and federal agency infromation, clarifies hearing request information and provides infromation regarding potential affirmative defenses in a number of types of cases, including the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA), the Veterans Employment Opportunities Act of 1998 (VEOA) and Individual Right of Action (IRA) (whistleblower) cases. 

The form was made effective immediately and is attached for review.  Download New MSPB Appeal Form.  When a federal employee is facing an MSPB appeal, it is important for them to have counsel familiar with MSPB cases.  Our law firm represents federal employees in all matters before the MSPB and can be contacted at (703) 668-0070 or www.berrylegal.com to go over individual legal matters in this regard.
