Program Summary
The United States Armed Forces are a lethal fighting force; however, they are more frequently than not bad a keeping accurate and timely human resources records. Adding a layer of complexity is the growing reliance on administrative military discipline which has the potential to derail careers, promotions, and in an alarming way, create a lifelong civilian criminal arrest record. The boards for the correction of military and naval records (the “BCMR”) is the sole avenue for Service members to correct or remove any administrative error or injustice. BCMRs are the final step in the exhaustion of administrative remedies prior to heading to litigation under the Administrative Procedures Act, the Military Pay Act, etc. Creating the administrative record at the BCMR is absolutely critical for successful litigation in the Court of Federal Claims, or any federal court.
This course is designed to provide insight into records correction process and guide practitioners through the wickets to understand how to overcome a practical doctrine of administrative compliance, e.g., did the government provide notice and right to be heard, and did the government comply with its own regulations. Importantly too, ensuring a complete administrative record is created if litigation becomes necessary.
MNB Meridian Law is a government practices advisory firm specializing in the vagaries and arcane of aspects of military service. Our attorneys have held positions across the Department of Defense from the “E Ring” to the foxholes and are considered the nation’s foremost military administrative law experts.

Christopher Nuneviller | MNB Meridian Law
Founding partner of MNB Meridian Law, Ltd. and the managing partner for the firm’s Philadelphia office. Christopher focuses his practice on small and mid sized business owners, investors and shareholders, and their success through smart formation, organization, governance, routine and special operations, and growth toward IPO. As a small business owner in several ventures himself, Christopher understands the pressure to succeed and be profitable, while staying level headed for his clients, employees, family, and business partners.
As a Veteran, Christopher also assists currently serving members of the Uniformed Services as they challenge the adverse administrative punishments military commanders use to “save” their commands and their careers, such as: administrative, criminal, and inspector general investigations, bad evaluations, positive urinalysis, non-judicial punishment, removal of special designations and positions, reprimands, removal from positions, loss of security clearances, titling, and administrative separation boards.
Christopher’s background includes practicing securities, venture capital, emerging business, military, and government regulatory law. He served as inhouse and general counsel, a contractor to the federal government, a federal government senior level executive, and a C-Suite executive. He is also a former U.S. Army Judge Advocate, having served seven years in Washington, D.C., where he gained significant experience with above-the fold matters of great import and an unhealthy insight into the internal workings of the beltway underbelly.
