In March 2015, The Law Offices of David P. Sheldon, in conjunction with a stellar legal team that includes attorneys from prominent Supreme Court litigation firm, Jenner and Block, filed a petition with the United States Supreme Court in Schwalier v. Carter. The petition raises the question of whether certain provisions of the Defense Officer Personnel Management Act violates the Appointments Clause. Also supporting the petition as Amicus Curiae are the Military Officers Association of America & the General Officers’ Network as well as the Air Force Association and former Air Force Secretaries Dr. James G. Roche and Michael W. Wynne.
In April and May 2008, Mr. Sheldon settled two wrongful death claims that obtained recoveries in excess of 1 million dollars.
