Text: Postal Service employees use digital badges for access to parking garages and office facilities. Petitioner argues that the Board improperly relied on digital badge access records because employees are not required to record their presence using their badges, and because employees may use the badges of other employees to enter work areas. The government responds that the Board did not consider such records in isolation, but also considered train schedules, witness testimony, and lack of explanation from Petitioner. The Board did not rely on the badge evidence alone, but as corroboration of other evidence, including testimony from Petitioner and witnesses. See J.C. Equip. Corp. v. England, 360 F.3d 1311, 1315 (Fed. Cir. 2004) (“The trier of fact’s responsibility is to determine the weight (if any) to be given all of the evidence, whatever its characBUCKNER v. USPS 7 ter.”). No error has been shown in the presentation of digital badge evidence.
