EEOC DISMISSES USPS APPEAL

With a letter order on March 26, 2021, the EEOC Office of Federal Operations (EEOC-OFO) dismissed the USPS “final action” and appeal of the Administrative Judge’s orders regarding the use of Special Masters to assist with review of the claims. This decision by EEOC-OFO means that the case remains fully before the EEOC Administrative Judge, and that she can use her discretion to find an appropriate method to have the claims reviewed and decided. The USPS attorneys sought to use the USPS March 17, 2021 appeal as a way to stall the case further and challenge the Administrative Judge’s authority. With this fast, favorable decision by EEOC-OFO, the course is now set to have the claims review process commence in the very near future.
