MSPB cases highlight the importance of the deciding official’s role in making — or breaking — an agency’s adverse action on appeal. Renowned federal expert Robert Erbe reviews important MSPB cases involving decision letters, alerting you to mistakes made by deciding officials and providing best practices your agency can use to avoid those errors.
Plus, you learn Mr. Erbe’s best practices to:
- Apply MSPB rulings on penalty determinations to your employee situations to minimize risks of reversal
- Avoid using language in decision letters that raises instant red flags
- Use the letter to “sell” the agency’s penalty decision, which can also be part of a compelling defense on appeal
- Prepare the deciding official to be an effective witness at hearing and to avoid common “traps”
- And more
