Opinions

Late yesterday, the Federal Circuit released two nonprecedential orders dismissing appeals. This morning, the court released two nonprecedential opinions and one Rule 36 judgment. Both opinions come in appeals of decisions of the Merit Systems Protection Board. Here are the introductions to the opinions and links to the dismissals and Rule 36 judgment.

Trimble v. Department of the Treasury (Nonprecedential)

Aisha Trimble applied for a job with the Internal Revenue Service but was not selected. Ms. Trimble petitions for review of a decision of the Merit Systems Protection Board that granted corrective action and ordered the IRS to reconstruct its selection process. Because the decision of the Board was not final, we lack jurisdiction and therefore dismiss Ms. Trimble’s petition.

Caneda v. Office of Personnel Management (Nonprecedential)

Manuel Caneda petitions for review of a final decision of the Merit Systems Protection Board (“the Board”). The Board affirmed a decision of the Office of Personnel Management (“OPM”) that denied Caneda’s application for deferred retirement benefits from the Civil Service Retirement System (“CSRS”) and his request to make a deposit into the Civil Service Retirement Fund (“CSRF”) to obtain credit for non-covered service. S.A. 9–15 (“Decision”). We affirm.
