United States Federal Circuit

In a Naval engineer's suit for back-pay for the pre-removal period during which she was still employed but was designated as being on AWOL status, the Court of Federal Claims' dismissal of the action for lack of jurisdiction is reversed and remanded as the Court of Federal Claims had jurisdiction over the employee's pay claim and the fact that the employee was ultimately removed from her position did not deprive the court of jurisdiction over her claim for pay that accrued prior to her removal.
