Appellant's dismissal from a position in the Department of Justice was sustained by the Civil Service Commission's Board of Appeals and Review on March 4, 1955. On June 29, 1955, the Commission declined to reopen the matter. On March 27, 1958, appellant filed a complaint 'for illegal separation from government service.'
