Request No. 05980719
Appeal No. 01963269
Agency No. 4A-000-1004-94
Hearing No. 170-95-8307X
DENIAL OF REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION
On May 2, 1998, Michael Bondy (hereinafter referred to as complainant)
initiated a request to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)
to reconsider the decision in Bondy v. USPS, EEOC Appeal No. 01963269
(April 6, 1998).EEOC regulations provide that the Commissioners may,
in their discretion, reconsider any previous decision where the party
demonstrates that: (1) the previous decision involved clearly erroneous
interpretation of material fact or law; or (2) the decision will have a
substantial impact on the policies, practices or operation of the agency.
See 29 C.F.R. �1614.405(b).<1>
After a review of complainant's request to reconsider, the previous
decision, and the entire record, the Commission finds that complainant's
request does not meet the criteria of 29 C.F.R. �1614.405(b), and
it is the decision of the Commission to deny complainant's request.
The decision of the Commission in Appeal Nos. 01963269 remains
the Commission's final decision. There is no further right of
administrative appeal from a decision of the Commission on a request
for reconsideration.
COMPLAINANT'S RIGHT TO FILE A CIVIL ACTION (P0900)
This decision of the Commission is final, and there is no further right
of administrative appeal from the Commission's decision. You have the
right to file a civil action in an appropriate United States District
Court within ninety (90) calendar days from the date that you receive
this decision. If you file a civil action, you must name as the defendant
in the complaint the person who is the official agency head or department
head, identifying that person by his or her full name and official title.
Failure to do so may result in the dismissal of your case in court.
"Agency" or "department" means the national organization, and not the
local office, facility or department in which you work.
RIGHT TO REQUEST COUNSEL (Z1199)
If you decide to file a civil action, and if you do not have or cannot
afford the services of an attorney, you may request that the Court appoint
an attorney to represent you and that the Court permit you to file the
action without payment of fees, costs, or other security. See Title VII
of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. � 2000e et seq.;
the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, 29 U.S.C. �� 791, 794(c).
The grant or denial of the request is within the sole discretion of
the Court. Filing a request for an attorney does not extend your time
in which to file a civil action. Both the request and the civil action
must be filed within the time limits as stated in the paragraph above
("Right to File A Civil Action").
