In Navy PEB cases, I always file a formal reconsideration petition prior to formal hearings. This is a “second bite at the apple” should your initial reconsideration petition be denied on the IPEB level. If our petition is granted, then we will receive a summary decision- an “on the record decision”. If it is not […]
