The essential operation of the Board is best understood through a review of its structure at the headquarters and regional offices, through a description of the steps of the appellate process, and by an understanding of the most significant decisions that have been issued since 1978 by the Board and by the Federal Circuit in cases involving adverse actions, performance-based cases, reduction-in-force appeals, enforcement petitions and counsel fee determinations. Add to these areas the most significant cases involving issues of discrimination, harmful error, and prohibited personnel practices, and the Board’s functions, adjudication procedures, and guiding caselaw become clear. Written by a long time practitioner before the Board, a lecturer on MSPB practice, and an author of comprehensive treatises on the law and procedure of the MSPB, Best of the Board provides a good introduction to the basics of Board operations and is well-suited for use by agency and appellants’ attorneys, employee relations specialists and human relations specialists, union representatives, and others who may be required to practice before the Board and need basic training to effectively undertake representation in the course of an appeal. A bibliography and reference section is included.
