OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE SHACKLEFORD 
ON THE GOVERNMENT'S MOTION TO DISMISS FOR 
FAIL URE TO PROSECUTE 
On January 2, 2019, the government moved to dismiss the subject appeal for 
failure to prosecute. We grant the motion. 
STATEMENT OF FACTS FOR PURPOSES OF THE MOTION 
1. On June 22, 2017, Andrews Contracting Services, LLC, submitted a 
certified claim to the contracting officer seeking to recover $293,797.51. On October 
30, 2017, the contracting officer issued a final decision denying that appeal. A timely 
appeal was made to this Board on January 29, 2018, and the appeal was docketed as 
ASBCA No. 61512. 
2. By letter dated March 20, 2018, the Board asked the parties to confer and to 
advise within 60 days as to whether each wanted a hearing or a record submission 
under Board Rule 11 and also to state any objections to any documents submitted to 
date under Board Rule 4. 
3. On May 29, 2018, the parties were directed to respond to the March 20, 
2018 order within 21 days. Appellant did not respond. 
4. The government responded on June 17, 2018, stating that the parties had 
conferred but that submission was unclear as to whether appellant joined in or agreed 
with the elections stated by the government, and thus, on July 23, 2018, appellant was 

directed to indicate within seven days as to whether it agreed with the matters set forth 
in the government's June 2018 letter. No response was received from appellant. 
5. On November 15, 2018, the government filed a motion requesting the Board 
to issue an order to appellant to show cause why the appeal should not be dismissed 
for failure to prosecute for its failure to respond to numerous Board orders and for its 
failure to respond to a government discovery request of August 23, 2018. We issued 
that order on November 20, 2018, with a response due in 30 days, and as of January 7, 
2019, appellant has not responded. 
DECISION 
Board Rule 17 provides as follows: 
Whenever the record discloses the failure of either 
party to file documents required by these Rules, respond to 
notices or correspondence from the Board, comply with 
orders of the Board, or otherwise indicates an intention not 
to continue the prosecution or defense of an appeal, the 
Board may, in the case of a default by the appellant, issue 
an order to show cause why the appeal should not be 
dismissed with prejudice for failure to prosecute. In the 
case of a default by the Government, the Board may issue 
an order to show cause why the Board should not act 
thereon pursuant to Rule 16. If good cause is not shown, 
the Board may take appropriate action. 
In this appeal appellant has not responded to numerous Board orders over an extended 
period of time and has not responded to the government's discovery request. We 
conclude that appellant has no intention to continue the prosecution of this appeal. 
Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed with prejudice.
