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.

Order
On December 20, 2006, George P. Gobble appealed the final decision of a General Services Administration contracting officer assessing appellant liquidated damages in connection with the purchase at auction of a 2005 Gulf Stream Travel Trailer. Appellant stated that he did not bid on the travel trailer and that his username and password had been stolen.
On February 5, 2008, respondent filed a notification of agreement for dismissal, stating:
Now Comes respondent by its attorney and notifies the Board that on February 4, 2008 the respondent obtained a copy of the police report made by appellant on this matter. The respondent had previously received appellant’s statement made under penalty of perjury that he did not bid on Lot 42, the travel trailer, and that he had made such a police report.
Respondent, therefore, in accord with its conference with the appellant and the Board on January 24, 2008 agrees to withdraw its claim for liquidated damages from the appellant upon the Board entering its Order of Dismissal in this appeal.
Appellant stated that he has no objection to respondent’s motion.
Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED.

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in George P. Gobble, CBCA 528. 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.
