The case caption as the decision prints it. Every word is kept; the rule the Board draws around it is not text, so it is not repeated here.

Chadwick C. Duran, Office of Regional Counsel, Department of Veterans Affairs, Indianapolis, IN, counsel for Respondent.
BORWICK, Board Judge.
Order
The parties have submitted a joint stipulation for withdrawal of this appeal with prejudice, after the Board issued an order to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. The parties agree that this appeal was premature because of a lack of a certified claim and a contracting officer’s final decision, as required under the Contract Disputes Act, 41 U.S.C. §§ 7101-7109 (as codified by Pub. L. No. 111-350, 124 Stat. 3677, 3816 (2011)). Pursuant to the agreement of the parties, and for the reasons stated in the show cause order, this appeal is DISMISSED. Board Rule 12(c).

What the page shows and the text does not repeat is the pagination furniture: the page numbers and the rules the Board draws around its caption and under its signatures.
