DISMISSED: December 14, 2007
CBCA 996
TITUS, LLC,
Appellant,
v.
GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION,
Respondent.
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.
Otis Miller, President of Titus, LLC, Washington, DC, appearing for Appellant.
Thomas Y. Hawkins, Office of General Counsel, General Services Administration, Washington, DC, counsel for Respondent.
SOMERS, Board Judge.
Appellant Titus LLC filed its Notice of Appeal on December 10, 2007. On December 13, 2007, counsel for the General Services Administration filed a request asking the Board to issue an Order to Show Cause why the appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. The Board scheduled a status conference to discuss the matter with the parties on December 14, 2007.
At the status conference, appellant, a subcontractor to OMF Contractors, Inc., (contract no. unknown) confirmed that it did not have a claim against the General Services Administration, but instead is seeking payment due from the prime contractor. The prime contractor has not filed this claim on behalf of the appellant and no final decision has been issued from a GSA contracting officer from which an appeal may be taken. As we discussed during the status conference, the Board does not possess jurisdiction to entertain Appellant’s claim. Accordingly, Appellant agreed to dismiss the appeal and will seek other remedies as appropriate.

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Titus, LLC, CBCA 996. 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.
