United States Federal Circuit
Cahill v. Merit Sys. Prot. Bd., 2015-3152
In a case brought by a former government employee alleging that agency officials had taken personnel actions against him in retaliation for his having raised concerns about his agency's data-gathering equipment and procedures, the MSRP's conclusion, that it lacked jurisdiction to hear it because plaintiff had not presented nonfrivolous allegations that his disclosure was known to at least one of the agency officials he charged with taking the challenged personnel actions, is reversed where plaintiff nonfrivolously alleged that at least one of his supervisors knew of his disclosure.
