Outpost 422 Declares Intent to Seek Judicial Review of Wisconsin Equal Rights Division Proceedings

By Bradley J. Burt

Outpost 422 was never created merely to criticize employers.

It was created to preserve evidence.

Every email, memorandum, timeline, investigative submission, witness statement, and administrative filing has become part of an evolving evidentiary archive documenting how disability accommodation disputes develop over time.

That archive will continue to expand as these matters proceed through the administrative hearing process.

Allegations Concerning Litigation Conduct

I also intend to challenge statements made during the administrative proceedings that I contend are inconsistent with the documentary record.

Where I believe filings submitted on behalf of Respondents contain factual inaccuracies or omissions, I intend to address those issues through cross-examination, documentary impeachment, and the procedures available before the Administrative Law Judge.

Likewise, where I believe investigative determinations failed to address material evidence, I intend to preserve those issues for judicial review.

Those issues—including any claims involving alleged false light, reputational harm, or litigation misconduct—will be pursued through the appropriate legal process and decided by the courts rather than through public accusation alone.

Why This Matters

The issue before me is larger than one employment dispute.

It concerns whether disabled veterans participating in DVR can report workplace concerns, request accommodations, and engage in protected activity without those communications later becoming the basis for adverse employment actions.

Those questions deserve careful examination.

They deserve a complete evidentiary record.

And they deserve independent judicial review where appropriate.

Declaration of Intent

Accordingly, Outpost 422 declares its intent to continue documenting these proceedings through Journalism eDiscovery while pursuing all available administrative and judicial remedies.

The purpose is not retaliation.

The purpose is accountability.

The administrative record will speak for itself.

The evidence will be presented.

The witnesses will testify.

The Tribunal—and, if necessary, the courts—will determine whether the chronology supports the stated reasons for the employment actions at issue or supports a different conclusion.
