LITTLETON and WHITAKER, Judges
(concurring).
We concur in the decision on the ground that in view of the facts and circumstances of this case, and the fact that the Civil Service Commission had authority to reopen and reconsider its decision on plaintiff’s appeal of February 4, 1948, and to issue an order restoring plaintiff to his old position, which was mandatory on the agency, the action of the Civil Service Commission on July 28, 1953, had the effect of creating a new cause of action in favor of the plaintiff.
We still hold to the view, however, that in ordinary cases the statute of limitation begins to run, as has been uniformly held by this court, when a Government employee is separated from the Government Service.
