Conley Monk is a 74 year old Marine Corps veteran from the Vietnam War who filed the lawsuit. Monk claims that VA has denied his disability claims at a much more frequent rate than white veterans over the past three decades, according to agency records obtained by Monk and the Yale Law School Veterans Legal Services Clinic.

Monk was later involved in two fights which he blamed on his PTSD. In 1971, he was given a discharge that was less than acceptable. This "bad paper" kept him from getting home loans as well as tuition aid and other benefits.
He sued the military in order to revers the discharge and was awarded full benefits both in 2015 and in 2020. He claims that the VA owes money for past denials of disability benefits. The suit also claims that he suffered emotional harm by reliving his most traumatizing experiences with each and every application for benefits.
