How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• recognizing that Congress enacted the Due Process Amendments in response to the Supreme Court’s decision in Fausto, where the Court held-that the CSRA precluded judicial review for non-preference eligible members of the excepted service
• holding that a statute that 10 explicitly included the authority to appoint and remove without regard to the provisions of Title 5 governing appointments in the competitive service was sufficient to exempt the position from Board appeal rights
• finding that the Secretary’s authority to remove employees under the appointment statute in Chavez distinguished Chavez from Briggs where such authority was not specified
