Outcome

The Eleventh Circuit affirmed the Department of Labor's decision denying Brown's motion to set aside the summary judgment in favor of his former employer Synovus under Sarbanes-Oxley Act retaliation claims. Brown's petition for review was denied because he failed to timely appeal and could not establish fraud on the court.
