BLACK POSTAL WORKER CLAIMS INSUBORDINATION FIRING WAS EEOC RETALIATION
PISCATAWAY – (July 31, 2006) -- The Federal Merit Systems Protection Board in Washington DC reverses Philadelphia District Ruling forcing a June 2006 Final Appeal to United States Court of Appeals.
James Coe, a Vietnam Veteran, who had a pending EECO case against his manager claims there was a connection between his protected EEOC grievance and his August 2005 insubordination termination from the Postal Service Processing & Distribution Center in Edison NJ.
Mr. Coe was initially disqualified for unemployment benefits by the New Jersey Department of Labor for employment misconduct.
September 2005 the New Jersey Department of Labor Appeals Tribunal issued a written opinion supporting Mr. Coe, “No disqualification arose under N.J.S.A. 43:21-5(b) as Mr. Coe was not discharged for misconduct connected with his work.”
Mr. Coe claiming to be a victim of employment discrimination faces an uphill battle before his hearing date to save his career and pension. Mr. Coe hopes most Americans would agree government agencies like the Postal Service should legally show just cause before firing Veterans.
Under financial pressure and pro se before the United States Appeals Court in Washington D.C. Mr. Coe’s only hope of survival is public support which could accelerate the normal (180 days) appeals process.
