  MATTER   OF:    Gloria Milliner--Backpay and
                  restoration of leave for period
                  of suspension
  DIGEST:
             Employee's claim for backpay and restora-
             tion of leave for period of suspension
             after her arrest on criminal charges by
             civil authorities is denied, notwith-
             standing subsequent dismissal of criminal
             charges, since there has been no finding
             by appropriate authority that suspension
             was unjustified or unwarranted.

     Miss Gloria Milliner through her attorney, Stanley H.
Miller, Esq., requests reconsideration of our Claims
Division settlement of July 14, 1978, which denied her
claim for backpay and restoration of leave incident to a
period of suspension from her employment by the Department
of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW), Social Security
Administration (SSA).  The denial of her claim is sus-
tained since neither SSA nor the Federal Employee Appeal
Authority (FEAA) of Civil Service Commission (CSC) now
Office of Personnel Management has determined her suspen-
sion to be unjustified or unwarranted.

     The record indicates that Miss Milliner, an SSA
employee, was given notice on May 5, 1976, of a proposed
indefinite suspension pending investigation of her
alleged misconduct after her arrest on certain criminal
charges in Baltimore on April 27, 1976. She was placed
on indefinite suspension from duty and pay status effec-
tive May 10, 1976, and notified of her right of appeal of
the suspension action to the FEAA. We are unware of any
appeal to her suspension.

     Her suspension remained in effect from May 10,
through September 10, 1976, the period for which she
claims backpay and leave restoration. She was returned
to duty after the criminal charges in Baltimore City
were dismissed.  Certain charges were still pending in
Baltimore County; however, SSA determined that this did
not warrant continuation of the suspension.
