Description: This highly interactive and sought-after class offers essential insights into the procedural framework and substantive rules that shape the administrative personnel security due process provided to individuals by the Defense Office of Hearings and Appeals. Gain a deep understanding of the national security adjudicative guidelines issued by the Director of National Intelligence, in effect since 2017, and learn how they guide decisions over eligibility for access to classified information.
Our esteemed presenter also explores the impact of Executive Order 13764, which modernizes federal background investigation protocols, and reviews the Federal Circuit decision in Wonders v. Department of the Army, highlighting its implications for transparency in administrative due process. Additionally, the class examines recent Department of Defense security clearance case decisions, showing firsthand how these rulings affect day-to-day practice.
To bring these concepts to life, you will engage in simulations, applying your knowledge of procedural rules, adjudicative guidelines, and relevant case decisions to real-world scenarios. This class is highly recommended for attorneys who represent military personnel, Department of Defense civilian employees, or contractors, facing security clearance denials or revocations.
