United States Federal Circuit
Acevedo v. US, 2015-5126
In a suit brought by plaintiffs who are employed by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Department of Homeland Security (CBP), as present and former Supply Chain Security Specialists in its Customs-Trade Protection Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) program, alleging that the U.S. violated 5 U.S.C. section 5928 by refusing to provide them with danger pay allowances, the Court of Federal Claims dismissal is affirmed where jurisdiction over the case is lacking because section 5928 and its implementing regulations are not money-mandating, as required for the court to possess jurisdiction under the Tucker Act, 28 U.S.C. section 1491(a)(1).
