individuals to the public service who would otherwise be\

var WPFootnote2 = '                   Although Ramos-Mercado has never disputed the fact of her\
removal from the judiciary, she suggested for the first time on\
appeal that there were other factual disputes between her and\
PREPA. We deem that argument waived. In any event, it is beside\
the point because the supposedly disputed facts were not material\
to PREPA\'s decision, which turned solely on the fact that Ramos-Mercado had been removed from office. See P.R. Laws Ann. tit. 3,\
§ 1462g(1) (removal from public service renders individual\
ineligible for public employment until habilitated); P.R. Elec.\

§ VIII(G) (Oct. 2006) (same).\
