Class Action Lawsuit

On August 2, 2007, a group of more than 100 police officers for the Federal Bureau of Investigation filed a class action complaint in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims for millions of dollars of back and future pay. The Complaint alleges that the FBI has not complied with a 2002 statute, part of the FBI Reform Act, that mandated that the FBI police force be paid the same pay and benefits as members of the Uniformed Division of the United States Secret Service. This case is still pending.[3]
