Relief

Corrective action may include:

Placing you, as nearly as possible, in the position you would have been in had the reprisal not taken place;
Reimbursement for attorney’s fees;
Reasonable costs, medical costs incurred, and travel expenses;
Back pay and related benefits; and
Any other reasonable and foreseeable consequential damages.

No. OARM lacks the authority to discipline, or recommend to the FBI that it discipline, individuals responsible for engaging in unlawful reprisal against a complainant. However, the Department of Justice and the FBI retain the authority to take appropriate disciplinary action if it is determined that such action is necessary.
