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.
JoeAnn McClandon, Chief Executive Officer of The Compak Companies, LLC, Sanford, FL, appearing for Appellant.
Jenny M. Matte, Office of Regional Counsel, General Services Administration, Atlanta, GA, counsel for Respondent.
Before Board Judges DANIELS (Chairman), VERGILIO, and WALTERS.
WALTERS, Board Judge.
This appeal involves a General Services Administration (GSA) auction contract and a claim by appellant, The Compak Companies, LLC, for coins missing from among those advertised for sale. The matter has been settled by means of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) proceedings conducted by Board Judge Allan H. Goodman as neutral mediator, pursuant to Board Rule 54, 48 CFR 6101.54 (2014). The parties have filed a settlement agreement and release together with a joint stipulation of award, under which they seek an award in favor of appellant in the amount of $207,472.50, to be paid to appellant from the permanent indefinite judgment fund.
Under their joint stipulation, the parties state that they will not seek reconsideration of, or relief from, the Board’s decision, and will not appeal the decision. In addition, under the settlement agreement and in consideration for the performance of its terms, appellant has waived and released respondent from any and all claims of any nature, including any right it may have to seek interest or the recovery of attorney fees.
Decision

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in The Compak Companies, LLC, CBCA 2545. Nothing is summarized or reworded, and the sections run in the order the Board wrote them. 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. The signatures are set back into the columns the Board prints them in, each judge under the name he or she signed, and the typed copy of that name the page carries beneath each signature is not repeated.
