Before Board Judges, SHERIDAN, KULLBERG, and SULLIVAN.

KULLBERG, Board Judge.

On March 4, 2024, the parties submitted to the Board a joint motion for judgment on a stipulated settlement. The parties requested that the Board enter judgment in the amount of $450,000, with payment to be made through the judgment fund in accordance with 31 U.S.C. § 1304 (2018) and 41 U.S.C. § 7108. Rule 25(b) (48 CFR 6101.25(b) (2023)).

The parties have agreed that they will not seek appeal of, reconsideration of, or relief from the Board’s decision and that each party will be responsible for its costs, attorney fees, and expenses incurred in the litigation of these appeals. Additionally, the parties have stipulated that interest on the amount of $450,000 will begin to accrue on April 1, 2024, if payment is not made by that date. The parties have also agreed that their settlement includes all of appellant’s claims except for home office overhead, which is not part of their settlement and remains before the Board for further proceedings.

Decision

The Board GRANTS IN PART these appeals. In accordance with the parties’ joint motion, the Board awards appellant the stipulated settlement amount of $450,000. Rule 25(b). Appellant’s claim for home office overhead is not subject to this decision. H. Chuck Kullberg

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Williams Building Company, Inc., CBCA 7101, 7131. 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.
