grant of federal court jurisdiction, Califano v. Sanders, 430 U.S. 99, 97 S.Ct. 980, 51 L.Ed.2d 192 (1977), the Court has since made clear that jurisdiction over APA challenges to federal agency action is vested in district courts unless a preclusion of review statute specifically bars judicial review in the district court. See, e.g., Chrysler Corp. v. Brown, 441 U.S. 281, 99 S.Ct. 1705, 60 L.Ed.2d 208 (1979). Citing Carducci v. Regan, 714 F.2d 171 (D.C.Cir.1983), the defendants maintain that the APA provides no basis for this court to assert subject matter jurisdiction over the plaintiffs’ nonconstitutional claims alleged in Counts I, III, and V because the Civil Service Reform Act (“CSRA”) bars judicial review of claims within the purview of the CSRA. See Carducci, 714 F.2d at 175 (<HOLDING>). A careful review of the CSRA convinces this
holding that the csras exclusive and comprehensive remedial scheme precludes review under the apa of disputes that concern not only employment practices specifically prohibited under the csra but also employment practices that are so insignificant as not even to bear mention in the csra holding that plaintiffs claims were precluded by csra because actions complained of arose from federal employment relationship even though many of the alleged violations occurred after the employment relationship was terminated holding that discriminatory employment practices are cognizable under title ix holding that plaintiffs were not released from the exclusive remedial framework of the csra when their claims arose from their federal employment even though the csra provided plaintiffs with no remedy holding csra controlled plaintiffs claims which arose as result of employment relationship
