Is there any way to place the money back into TSP once courts finally make OWCP give me back pay? At least the amount taken out toget my TSP to pre injury levels?
I assume/hope you are represented. I assume your case in now in court, rather than at ECAB.
In addition to what Tom says, you can essentially ask the court to restore you to your status quo ante as well as awarding you other damages. Such an order could bypass Catch-up rules/restrictions and restore penalties and lost returns, etc.
Good Luck!
