DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS 701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001 ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490 Docket No: 564-16/ 7819-14 JAN 18 2017 Dear: This is in reference to your latest reconsideration request dated 14 January 201 6. You previously petitioned the Board and were advised in our letter of 15 January 2015 that your application had been denied. Your case was reconsidered in accordance with Board for Correction ofNaval Records procedures that conform to Lipsman v. Secretary ofthe Army, 335F.Supp.2d 48 (D.D.C 2004). Your current request has been carefully examined by a three-member panel of the Board for Correction ofNaval Records, sitting in executive session on 14 October 2016. The names and votes of the members of the panel will be furnished upon request. Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of your application and any material submitted in support of your application. After careful and conscientious consideration of the entire record, the Board determined that the new statements and 2011 letter of recommendation you provided were insufficient to establish the existence of probable material error or injustice. The Board gave liberal consideration to your contentions that you were given a low evaluation due to your High Year Tenure (HYT) status and not provided enough time to check out with command leadership. However, the Board concluded that these factors were not sufficient to warrant relief in your case, because no error or injustice was identified in its review ofyour records. Accordingly, the Board concurs with the previous Board decision and your application has been denied. In this regard, the Board found that your contentions are insufficient to warrant further consideration in your case. In the absence of sufficiently material evidence for reconsideration, the decision ofthe Board is final, and your only recourse would be to initiate action, at no cost to the Board, to a court ofappropriate jurisdiction. Sincerely, Executive Director
