Whether an administrative agency's intentional spoliation of the underlying record can invalidate an appellate judgment and require judicial review of agency misconduct

e Whether an appellate court’s judgment may stand when extrinsic evidence reveals that the underlying administrative record was corrupted by the adjudicating agency’s own spoliation of evidence. e Whether the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) exercises “considerable executive power,” as that term is used in Trump v. Wilcox, 605 U.S. _ (2025), or functions as a “quasi-judicial” body when it acts as counsel for the Department of Defense in federal court, and what level of deference its procedural findings are owed in light of such actions. e Whether a federal district court, possessing evidence of agency misconduct and a breached settlement agreement, is the proper forum to order a global resolution, including a consolidated remand of related whistleblower claims to the MSPB for adjudication on a clean record.
