MATTER OF:      Francis J. Pinkney, III - Backpay Computa-
                  tation - Discrimination - Annual and Sick
                  Leave
DIGEST:


       A U.S. District Court found that an
       employee had been removed from his position
       with the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) in
       violation of the Equal Employment Opportun-
       ity Act of 1972. The court ordered the DMA
       to reinstate the employee with backpay. We
       hold that the employee is entitled to
       restoration of the annual leave and the
       sick leave he would have earned during the
       period of his discriminatory separation as
       an element of backpay.

       R. W. Paquette, Accounting and Finance Officer for
  the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA), requests an advance
  decision as to whether sick and annual leave, which an
  employee would have earned during the period of his
  discriminatory separation, may be restored as an element
  of backpay which was awarded by a U.S. District Court.

       We hold that the employee is entitled to the sick and
  annual leave which he would have earned during the period
  of wrongful separation. Such restoration would achieve
  the make-whole purposes of the Equal Employment Opportun-
  ity Act. In addition, such restoration is consistent with
  the regulations implementing the Act as set forth in
  29 C.F.R. S 1613.271 (1983).

                             FACTS

       On March 30, 1983, the United States District Court
  for the District of Columbia found-that Mr. Francis J.
  Pinkney, III, had been removed from his position with the
  Defense Mapping Agency in violation of Title VII of the
  Civil Rights Act of 1984, as amended by the Equal Employ-
  ment Opportunity Act of 1972. The court concluded that
  the DMA unlawfully discriminated and retaliated against
  Mr. Pinkney because of his race. Pinkney v. Weinberger,
  Civil Action No. 81-1150 (March 30, 1983). The court
  ordered that Mr. Pinkney be reinstated with backpay
