the morning may please the court i'm james bolen representing timothy holmes in this appeal this appeal involves a contract action against the navy for breach of two settlement agreements to bring unsettling title seven employment discrimination claims on the government's motion to dismiss the court of federal claims concluded first that it lacks a big amount of matter jurisdiction over these two settlement agreements because they were not money mandating and second that homes this claim was time barred by the six year statute limitations period and was not entitled to the cruel suspension rule and we would the both these decisions were in error and should be reversed with respect to subject matters matter jurisdiction this appeal presents an opportunity for the federal circuit to clarify clarify what i believe is a contracts that are not do you agree that there could be some agreements that are not on the n a v but i think there could be but i think this maybe this is a subtle distinction the government in their brief in the end indicated that i think they characterize it as a breach of an obligation to pay money and we would disagree with that characterization is a settlement agreement does not have to spell out in specific terms that money will be paid and i think the government has conceded titles or jurisdiction of title seven neither of those is money manager as it is it involves some sort of money grammy right but so that's your typical sort of so what makes this different well our position is that the existence of a ministry to remedy does not foreclose the government does and does not comply with its perform promise to perform and not breach and it damages causes actual damages to the to the individual that individual has stated a valid claim under the tuc us and that's our southern power of the government and it's something that is that is unique in that the courts of looked at that and of determined that it's appropriate for only the district courts that had jurisdiction over the initial criminal matter to handle those but you know without without whether or not the point of able to respond to established damages whether he will prove that he's entitled to them but i don't think for purposes of the thrushes threshold jurisdictional question whether he needs to establish actual entitlement at this will respect the right and we will not disagree about mood with that fundamental principle but i guess i think that that would be an issue that would probably be explored later on in the case once the government has answered the complaint and there's been the navy did not expunge his record and now that he knows that the navy did not comply that has given him sufficient information to believe that the that the navy's noncompliance likely contributed to damages earlier  subjective process that did not involve the navy at all and he would have had no reason to believe that the navy's breach usually or was affecting that there are many reasons why someone might not get a job and and i think which is which the trial court did in this case and then determine whether it's a money man doing the test is so let's assume that we have even i mean well this case or even a stronger case where clearly de read his records are found the if if i understand under the contracts at issue in this case including or when remedies that they specifically one contract specifically provides one of which is to go back to the district court if you have an well it's possible i don't know if the answer is which side of the line there's a spectrum here of settlement one contracts are very clearly money mandating and those that are not and this one we standard is whether the contract can be fairly interpreted as mandating the compensation mandating compensation by the federal government so that is definitely not does not have to be expressly just that this problems that the government made which was basically to go in and make a correction of his files that this promise naturally leads hether he was aware of this alleged injury whether he was aware of his potential flame in other words he filed chopped up occasions and the way these courts abuse these types of cases if some files the job application and it's notified that they haven't gotten the job they have and they're alleging some sort of discrimination were unlawful conduct on behalf of the government then the statute of limitations begins to run at the has exclusive jurisdiction points the government compared to the facts in this case to the other cases where courts have found that when an individual plies for a job the kind of immediate injury is not receiving that job but i just think it's important to note that don't know if i don't know if just because the government or an official in the navy five years earlier did not adequately explain his record i don't know if that's sufficient to overcome that presumption that the government would would would not act in good faith going for best forty one forty nine to fifty four of the complaint that it demonstrates that it in three separate times he requested his records and three separate times in two thousand six seven and eight the navy provided different information and each time he learned new information that we received from that from the government information that he believes should have been expunged and so i think that those facts alone suggest that it's not reasonable to shift the burden on the holes in the government's promise to to clear the records and do it bunch them and to keep and essentially keep them expunged that's a promise that he can reasonably rely upon and as as evidenced by his three at least three requests and receiving different pieces of information it would be an enormous to shift to individuals to essentially continually monitor the government's promise and i don't i don't think in this specific case where there's a where there where there is a specific promise from the government to take certain actions with respect to the records that that an individual should be expected but but most promises there are other facts that would suggest there were put there were they would put that person on notice you know if you get if going to promise to deliver something and you don't receive it well then you're clearly you're you're quite information to believe that something was wrong or th you know the our bottom line position is that at a minimum the court's just determination here on across the country was premature it may be that when there is fact finding that that that maybe maybe he knew or had were acquired infor
