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 November 5, 2007, the Board received from Mr. Ferguson a notice of appeal concerning a contracting officer’s decision dated August 2, 2007. In the decision, the contracting officer confirmed earlier correspondence that deemed Mr. Ferguson to be in default and liable for liquidated damages because of failure to pay for and remove a vehicle purchased during an on-line auction held by the respondent, the General Services Administration (Government). Mr. Ferguson maintains that he did not bid on the vehicle. He seeks to have the default voided and his record cleared.
After an initial conference with the Board, and the submission of an appeal file, the parties exchanged information and engaged in discussions. On April 3, 2008, the Board received a joint stipulation of dismissal, in which the parties request a dismissal with prejudice, having settled the dispute.

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Jim Ferguson, CBCA 962. 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.
