United States First Circuit

In a suit brought by federal employees challenging the Office of Personnel Management’s (OPM) regulations that exclude cost-of-living allowances (COLAs) from the calculation of retirement and other benefits, the district court's dismissal of the complaint is affirmed over plaintiffs' contentions that allege the regulations are unlawfully discriminatory under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Pub L. No. 88-352, 78 Stat. 241, 253-66, and are arbitrary, capricious, and contrary to law under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).
