[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’ll have to wait until a fed gets “injured” … trying to slow him down with these lawsuits at least as they relate to federal workforce will no longer work in the interim. [/quote]

Right. And no one is getting fired here, it's a resignation.

Maybe there will be injury to litigate if folks don't get paid because of no funding or something. [/quote]

Yes exactly. I'm a lawyer and this seemed obvious from the start.[/quote]

Is there any injury for relying on an invalid offer/contract? I thought there was case law about you being out of luck if you rely on what some random gov employee tells you and it turns out they're wrong.[/quote]

The injury will be when they don't pay out as promised, that's a breach of contract. But you need to be careful about what exactly OPM has said and caveats.

Re "random gov employee" yes, if your manager is just like "hey I'll give you 5 years of paid leave if you do X" it's obviously unreasonable to rely on it. This is coming from OPM and agencies are sending it out via email blessing it. So this isn't like a random thing that an unauthorized low-level person promised.

I am not actually saying they are doing it right or defending their motivations or process - just saying it would be a strong claim/lawsuit to bring if the paid admin leave doesn't end up happening. Strong, but not foolproof of course.[/quote]
