MEMORANDUM**

2

Although we are not convinced that substantial evidence demonstrates that Knecht falsified his sick leave claims, we hereby affirm the decision of the district court substantially for the other reasons carefully detailed in its Memorandum and Order of February 23, 1989. We believe a remand for reconsideration by the Merit Service Protection Board would be futile under the circumstances of this case.

AFFIRMED.

*

The panel finds this case appropriate for submission without oral argument pursuant to Fed.R.App.P. 34(a) and 9th Cir.R. 34-4

**
