 Killeen v. Office of Personnel Management
  The error, OPM explained, was that it had failed to compare the annuity amount calculated pursuant to the formula in section 8339(a) to the 50% minimum annuity amount as required by section 8336(e).
OPM’s regulation, 5 C.F.R. § 831.703(f)(2), plainly prohibits the use of the deemed annual pay methodology of subsection (p) when calculating the 50% minimum annuity for air traffic controllers under section 8339(e).
The 50% minimum annuity provision in section 8339(e), according to OPM, is not a “computation” within the meaning of subsection (p).
