DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS,

Respondent.

for Appellant.

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.

Neal S. Deol, Office of General Counsel, Department of Veterans Affairs, Decatur, GA, counsel for Respondent.

DANIELS, Board Judge (Chairman).

Order

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) contracted with Legion Construction, Inc. (Legion) for interior renovation and mechanical upgrades to a building at the VA Medical Center in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts. Legion claimed that it is entitled to be paid $163,842 in compensation for delays to the project caused by the VA. The contractor appealed from a deemed denial of the claim.

The parties have now resolved their dispute and settled the case. Legion moves the Board, with the VA’s assent, to dismiss the case with prejudice.

Accordingly, the case is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.

Board Judge

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Legion Construction, CBCA 5177. 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.
