Trimble v. Department of Veterans Affairs

 
DOCKET NO.
OP. BELOW
SUBJECT
Pro Se

Question(s) Presented

1. “When a qualified preference eligible seeks initial appointment under an open competition announcement, does Congress allow federal agencies to deny and violate that veteran’s statutory right to preference if the announcement is also open to status candidates seeking merit promotion?”

2. “When a federal agency publishes an open competition announcement and hires federal employees they already know, after emailing instructions to consider them first while naming other employees to consider irrespective of interviews, does that prove pre-selection activity, granting of unfair advantages and denial of a qualified preference eligible’s right to compete for initial appointment?”

3. “Under an open competition announcement and legislation that requires one Certificate to be issued, does Congress allow federal agencies to issue several Certificates causing a preference eligible seeking initial appointment to be segregated, illegally ranked and denied their statutory right to have extra points added to their score?”
