This morning the Federal Circuit released one nonprecedential opinion and three nonprecedential orders. The opinion affirms a decision of the Merit Systems Protection Board, which denied an application for disability retirement benefits. The first order denies a petition for a writ of mandamus seeking to order the Eastern District of Texas to vacate an order denying transfer and to transfer the case. The last two orders were both dismissals. Here are the introductions to the opinion and first order, as well as links to the dismissals.
