@Fri 10/17: Why the VA REALLY hates lawyers.

The first was when U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Robertslambasted a government attorney at oral argument, over the VA GC lawyers’ unethical actions for their repeated legally “unjustified” challenges to the EAJA attorney fee awards to veterans’ lawyers; even after they won appeals at BVA, the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC) and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, DC. (see excerpt of Astrue v. Ratliff, Case No. 08-1322). In other words, VA lawyers under Gunn were making “substantially unjustified” and “legally erroneous” claims in making these baseless challenges to court-awarded attorney fees. Chief Justice Roberts’ remarks clearly displayed his disgust and contempt for VA lawyers because of the policy of fraud Mr. Gunn encouraged.
