Date: November 16, 2000 Claimant: [claimant] File Number: 01-0009 OPM Contact: Melissa Drummond |
The claimant, an employee of the United States Postal Service (USPS) is
requesting a waiver of overpayment. We received the claim on November 6, 2000.
The Office of Personnel Management does not have any authority to settle claims that have been made against an agency that has independent settlement authority under the law. The applicable law in this case, section 2008(c) of title 39, United States Code, states:
This regulatory provision authorizes the USPS to consider and settle all claims that have been made against it. Therefore, we do not have the authority to consider or settle this claim. |
