Mixed EEO and Merit Systems Protection Board Cases

Definition of Mixed Case

A mixed case occurs when an employee has an action that is appealable to the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) and also is appealable through the EEO complaint process because the employee claims the action was taken as the result of discrimination based on race, color, religion, genetic information, national origin, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and gender identity, including transgender status), age (40+), physical or mental disability or in retaliation for involvement in protected EEO activity If you have a mixed case, you have the option of filing a mixed-case appeal with the MSPB or filing a mixed-case EEO complaint with the Postal Service, but not both.
