Case Details

Supreme Court ruling in favor of combat-disabled veterans, establishing that the 6-year limit from the Barring Act does not apply to Combat-Related Special Compensation (CRSC) back pay.

Additional Notes

The ruling in Soto v. United States means veterans should be paid back to when they first qualified for CRSC, potentially going back to 2008, and could result in thousands of dollars in backpay for affected veterans. The case was brought by Simon Soto, a Marine veteran medically retired with PTSD.
