File a Claim

Current, former or retired federal civilian employees may be entitled to compensation for improperly charged military leave. Prior to 2000 federal agencies charged military reservists for days which they were not required to work. A recent landmark ruling (originally known as Butterbaugh) allows affected individuals to file claims.
