An individual's right to due process is truncated if he or she is persuaded not to attend his or her administrative hearing


An individual's right to due process is truncated if he or she is persuaded not to attend his or her administrative hearing
Kennedy v United States, USCA, Federal Circuit, Docket 16-1512

Although a federal Claims Court held that individual’s disenrollment from a program was lawful and that his breach-of-contract claims for monetary relief lacked merit, the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals reversed.

The Circuit Court ruled that in view of the government’s concession that the individual’s due process rights were violated when he was dissuaded from attending his hearing, the Claims Court erred in concluding that individual’s disenrollment was inevitable.
