Summary: Hearing For Gay Man (Press, 17 June 1987)
On 17 June 1987, a United States Court of Appeals made a significant ruling regarding the National Security Agency (NSA) and its treatment of employees based on sexual orientation. The court decided that the NSA must provide a hearing before dismissing an employee identified in legal documents as John Doe, a cryptographic technician, on the grounds of being a security risk due to his homosexuality. This ruling emphasises the legal rights of employees, particularly in terms of due process, as it pertains to employment termination in sensitive government positions.
