Clifford L. Norton v. John MacY

BAZELON, Chief Judge:

Appellant, a former GS-14 budget analyst in the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), seeks review of his discharge for “immoral conduct” and for possessing personality traits which render him “unsuitable for further Government employment.” As a veterans preference eligible, he could be ^dismissed only for “such cause as will ''promote the efficiency of the service.” 1 Since the record before us does not suggest any reasonable connection between the evidence against him and the effi-cieney of the service, we conclude that he was unlawfully discharged.
