Description: Yesterday, we were supposed to find out whether the Office of Personnel Management's controversial deferred resignation program will be allowed to proceed, but we did not hear.

Right now, Federal News Network's Jared Serbu has been up all night almost with an update on what's happening and not happening in the courts. Learn more about your ad choices.
