Question(s) Presented

Was the application of the statute of limitations proper in Hatter VII, wherein the “question was whether the moneys wrongfully withheld from the judges’ monthly paychecks constituted a ‘continuing claim?’”

Holding

“After full consideration of the petition by the plaintiffs/appellants and the Government’s response, the court en banc concluded that, with regard to the statute of limitations issue, the opinion in Hatter VII did not give adequate weight to this court’s precedents; accordingly, part 3 of the opinion in Hatter VII was withdrawn.”
