Lawyer's Essay on Security Clearances

The May 22 edition of the Daily Record, a Rochester, NY, legal newspaper, includes an article by a local lawyer who uses a fictitious example to illustrate problems companies may encounter while contracting with the Department of Defense on work involving security clearances. He discusses how “personal conduct” and “financial considerations” can negatively impact a security clearance determination. He also discusses the Defense Office of Hearings and Appeals.
