Before Board Judges VERGILIO, KULLBERG, and CHADWICK.

VERGILIO, Board Judge.

After receipt of the disputed decision of the contracting officer, the contractor filed this appeal at the Board outside of the statutory ninety-day window, 41 U.S.C. § 7104(a) (2018). The Board lacks jurisdiction to resolve the dispute. See Treasure Valley Forest Products v. Department of Agriculture, CBCA 3604, 14-1 BCA ¶ 35,549.

Decision

The case is DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION.

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Knighto LLC dba Knight Solutions, CBCA 7723. 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.
