long-standing, ongoing disputes with the Office of Personnel
Management (OPM)2 concerning whether OPM gave him proper credit
towards his annuity for his military service.3 Petitioner claims
that because OPM failed to give him proper credit for certain
military service, his annuity benefits have been less than they
should have been.
In 1986, OPM determined that petitioner was overpaid
annuity benefits for prior periods in the amount of $7,291.
Consequently, OPM began collecting the overpayment by deducting,
or withholding, $202.52 from petitioner's monthly annuity
distributions. Through this method, as of August 31, 1989, OPM
had collected the entire amount of the overpayment, and the
deductions from petitioner's annuity distributions did not
continue beyond that date. For various reasons, petitioner does
not necessarily agree that he was overpaid for the earlier years,
nevertheless, through the deductions from his monthly annuity
benefits he "repaid" $1,620.16 to OPM in 1989. No other
repayments were made by petitioner to OPM during 1989. No
repayments of annuity benefits, through deductions from
petitioner's pension benefits or otherwise, were made by
petitioner to OPM during 1990 and 1991.
2OPM is responsible for the administration of the CSRS.

Management, 833 F.2d 975 (Fed. Cir. 1987).
