In SRA In'l v. U.S. (Sept. 15, 2014), the Federal Circuit held that the Court of Federal Claims lacked jurisdiction over a protest of an agency's OCI waiver made in the context of a task order procurement. The Federal Circuit found that the divestiture of jurisdiction over task order procurements in the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act is complete and does not have an exception for alleged violations of statute or regulation.

New Post Appeals Mediation Pilot Program
On October 1, 2025, the IRS Independent Office of Appeals launched a two-year pilot program to make Post Appeals Mediation (PAM) more attractive and accessible to taxpayers. See IRS Announcement 2025-10. The new PAM pilot program offers taxpayers the opportunity to be assigned to a new Appeals team, which is otherwise unconnected to the underlying case, who will represent the original Appeals team in the mediation session. The assignment of the new Appeals team does not begin a new appeals process but rather is intended to help facilitate an expedited and impartial look at the underlying case with the goal of further exploring all potential paths to resolution prior to litigation.
