MSPB UPGRADES WEB-BASED ELECTRONIC FILING The Merit Systems Protection Board is pleased to announce that it has upgraded e-Appeal (https://e-appeal.mspb.gov), its online system for filing appeals electronically. Previously, only new appeals could be filed via the Internet. Now, participants in Board proceedings are able to file virtually any type of pleading in a secure, online environment that includes context-specific Help text and links. E-Appeal now includes the following features:
Acting Chairman Neil A.G. McPhie stated, "Our online e-Appeal system is an important e-Government initiative that enhances our mission efficiency, and provides an important service to our appellate customers. This upgrade will greatly assist them in the meeting of filing requirements and will improve the quality and timeliness of appellate submissions." A more complete description of e-Appeal, and the regulations governing electronic filing, are contained in today's Federal Register Notice. The MSPB is an independent, quasi-judicial agency with responsibility for deciding Federal employee appeals from personnel actions taken against them, protecting the integrity of the civil service and other Federal merit systems, and conducting studies of the civil service and other merit systems in the Executive Branch.
