Highlights

The Department of the Interior requested a decision regarding an employee's entitlement to accrue and carry over unused military leave he earned as a member of a reserve unit. Interior had denied the claim on the basis that the: (1) claimant did not request such leave in fiscal years (FY) 1984 and 1985; and (2) he was a member of an inactive reserve unit with no active duty requirement. GAO held that the claimant was entitled to accrue and carry over military leave, since his participation in an inactive reserve unit did not affect leave accrual or carryover regulations. Accordingly, the claim was allowed.
