Use of the title "Administrative Law Judge," or "U.S. Administrative Law Judge," are references to an ALJ's official position and could be a violation of the Standards of Conduct when used on personal letterhead.

The bar on use of title and position set forth in 5 C.F.R. § 2635.807(b), like the related bar in 5 C.F.R. § 2635.702, do not apply to activities undertaken as part of an employee's official duties.
