MER Memorandum: Processing Grievances Concerning CPOC Actions |
 | | In any event, in overruling a CPOC decision, a commander may not offer or grant a remedy which impacts on the CPOC's processing of other installations' actions (for example, remedies requiring all actions from an installation be processed first) except as reasonably necessary to implement specific relief to the grievant(s). |
 | | Installations and CPOCs are cautioned that coordination, and a decision issued to the grievant, must be accomplished normally within 60 calendar days from the filing of the grievance, but in no case later than 90 calendar days, absent mutual agreement between the installation and the grievant to extend the time limit. |
 | | Thus, where a CPOC director has been identified as the deciding official, and, in a particular grievance, he or she is not at "an organizational level higher than any employee involved in the grievance or [has] a direct interest in the matter being grieved," he or she would still remain the deciding official. |
