PETITION FOR REHEARING
Statement of Pro Se Plaintiff, Class Agent; Material points of fact and law have been
overlooked in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decision affirming the District Court
dismissal of this case;
Plaintiff began his Class Action discrimination claim (US EEOC) while an employee;
establishing standing; Plaintiff, and OTHERS SIMILARLY SITUATED, was in immediate
danger and did sustain direct and real injury as the result of the challenged official
misconduct; Plaintiff and the US EEOC did reveal evidence of class directed age and sex
discrimination by Defendant against Plaintiff and other white males over 40 (the class);
The Defendant admits practicing gender and race preference discrimination in hiring by
implementation of management directive and personnel policy;
Plaintiff/Class Agent is authorized to seek civil remedy in Federal Court by US EEOC
Review, Decision, and Order of said class complaint (age & sex discrimination, white
males over 40), US EEOC Appeal No. 01A03959, Hearing No. 320-AO-8196X;
In employment actions brought under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,
42 U.S.C & 2000e, discrimination claims, pro bono counsel may be appointed pursuant
to section 2000e-5(f)(1)(B) to represent Class Agent/Class;
Fees and costs under EAJA can be awarded including in cases taken on a pro bono basis,
The Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA), 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d) & 5 U.S.C. § 504 et seq.;
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has failed to consider material points of fact and law,
has failed to construe all material allegations in favor of Plaintiff/Class Agent and Class.
PETITION REQUEST FOR REHEARING EN BANC
This case deserves en banc consideration because of its exceptional importance;
Should Defendants, as Agents of the US Government, a Government that is by example,
principle, Constitution, and Law required to prevent discrimination, be endorsed to
practice age and sex discrimination?, gender and race preference discrimination in
hiring?, and personnel abuses via retaliation and reprisal, to use threats such as "directed
reassignments" to silence dissent and freedom of speech?, to encourage a precedent for
future abuses; Rather than affirm the District Court, and endorse discrimination, the
Court of Appeals must transcend a merely clerical role, and see that this case is reviewed
upon its' Merit; The Court of Appeals must uphold the Civil Rights Act of 1964, reverse
the decision to dismiss this case, and award judgement for Class Agent and Class.
Dated April 12th, 2005, Respectfully submitted;____________________, Glenn D Ferren
