Before Board Judges RUSSELL, VERGILIO, and KANG.

RUSSELL, Board Judge.

On May 11, 2026, the parties filed a joint motion requesting the entry of a stipulated judgment in appellant’s favor in the amount of $725,000. Appellant waives any right it may have under Board Rule 30 or otherwise to seek an award of attorney fees and expenses. See Rule 30 (48 CFR 6101.30 (2025)). Additionally, consistent with the parties’ motion, this amount is inclusive of interest under the Contract Disputes Act (CDA) through the date of this decision. See 41 U.S.C. § 7109 (2024). The parties have also stipulated that they will not seek reconsideration of, seek relief from, or appeal the Board’s entry of judgment awarding the stipulated amount to appellant, see Rule 25(b), and waive all rights of reconsideration, review, or appeal with respect to this judgment under Board Rules 26, 27, and 28.

Decision

The appeal is GRANTED IN PART. Respondent shall pay $725,000 to appellant in full settlement of CBCA 7346, 7347, and 7384, inclusive of interest under the CDA through the date of this decision. Appellant waives any further right it may have to a claim for recovery as detailed above.

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Gilbane-Grunley Joint Venture, CBCA 7346, 7347, 7384. 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.
