Court Rules for Coast Guard Reservist in “National Emergency” Pay Dispute
We just won our second SCOTUS case, and I’d like it on the website. I think the following link would be good, it’s not behind a paywall, and the verbiage below, as well as the link to the actual SCOTUS decision should be included. Can we do this?
We are beyond proud and happy to announce today’s SCOTUS opinion in our client’s favor, unambiguously holding that Federal civilian employees who are on active-duty orders “during a national emergency” are entitled to the differential pay between their civilian and military salaries.
As always, we could not have done this without the invaluable assistance of our friends at Arnold & Porter, especially Andrew Tutt and John P. Elwood. And of course, a huge thanks to Reserve Organization of America (ROA) for their continued support of our efforts and on behalf of all Reserve/Guard personnel.
If you are a Federal civilian employee and were denied this differential pay while on active-duty orders, or know someone who was, please contact us.
