MATTER  OF:


DIGEST:


DATE: April 23, 1980


Robert M. Schabert - Retroactive Temporary
Promo.tion

Employee of the Department of the
Air Force appealed Certificate of
Settlement which denied his claim
for a retroactive temporary promotion
and backpay for period prior to April 9,
1978. Denial is sustained as record
shows the duties which employee claims
he performed were not classified at
higher grade until March 1978 and
that employee was promoted to higher
grade within 120 days thereafter.
Supreme Court in United States v.
Testan, 424 U.S. 392 (1976) held there

of the Air Force whose duty station was McClellan Air
Force Base, California. From before January 25, 1973,
Mr. Schabert, a Production-Management Specialist,
GS-ll01-09, had been assigned additional duties

Equipment (RPIE) Removal Program. On December 20,
1977, he submitted an SF 172 to update his personal
