Appellant.
Jay Bernstein, Office of General Counsel, General Services Administration,
Washington, DC, counsel for Respondent.
Before Board Judges DANIELS (Chairman), VERGILIO, and STEEL.
STEEL, Board Judge.
For the reasons below, the Board grants the motion of the General Services
Administration (GSA) to dismiss for failure to prosecute.
Background
Persaud Companies, Inc. (PCI) filed a notice of appeal to this Board on January 7,
2013.  Along with the filing of appellant’s complaint on April 19, 2013, lawyers of the firm
Thompson Hine LLP entered their appearance as legal counsel to appellant.  The Board
received respondent’s answer on May 20, 2013.  On July 12, 2013, appellant’s counsel filed

CBCA 3179 2
a motion for leave to withdraw as counsel of record for appellant.  The Board granted the 
motion and ordered appellant to show cause on or before Monday, August 5, 2013, why the
appeal should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute.  On September 18, 2013, respondent
filed a motion to dismiss the appeal for failure to prosecute, asserting that appellant
abandoned the case.  Appellant has failed to respond to both the Board’s order and
respondent’s motion.
Board precedent dictates that dismissal for failure to prosecute is appropriate when
an appellant is unresponsive to an order requiring action by the appellant.  See Ryll
International, LLC v. Department of Transportation, CBCA 2069, 13 BCA ¶ 35,331; Cecelia
Sutton v. General Services Administration, CBCA 2810, 12-2 BCA ¶ 35,158.  To date,
appellant has not responded to the order to show cause or respondent’s motion.  Dismissal
is warranted.
Decision
The appeal is DISMISSED FOR FAILURE TO PROSECUTE.

ORDER
Appellant, OREADY LLC (contractor), filed this appeal disputing a decision by a
contracting officer that limited to a specific dollar amount the contractor’s reimbursement
under a contract, although the contractor sought an additional fixed sum.  The decision
notified the contractor of its appeal rights.  Thereafter, the contractor filed a certified claim
for the amount in dispute and this appeal of the contracting officer’s decision.
The agency maintains, as noted in a motion opposed by the contractor, that this appeal
should be dismissed because a contracting officer’s decision was lacking at the time this
appeal was filed.  The contractor subsequently filed a separate appeal contesting the


CBCA 8427 2
contracting officer’s decision denying the certified claim.  The parties request that this appeal
be dismissed without prejudice, viewing this appeal as moot given the recently filed appeal.
At the request of the parties, this appeal is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE
pursuant to Board Rule 12(b)(2) (48 CFR 6101.12(b)(2) (2024)).

7576, 24-1 BCA ¶ 38,496.  In an order issued the same day, the Board directed the parties
to confer and file a joint stipulation as to the amounts owed, pursuant to the guidance
provided in that decision.  If the parties were unable to agree upon the amounts owed, the
Board directed that the parties file their own calculations and explain why they were unable
to agree.  
On February 9, 2024, the parties filed separate responses to the Board’s order. 
Appellant stated that the parties were unable to agree but provided no calculation as to the


CBCA 7576 2
amounts owed, advising the Board of its intent to appeal the Board’s decision to the United
States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.  Respondent, Department of State (DOS),
calculated the following amounts owed for each of the four properties covered by the lease,
with a worksheet showing the calculations (interest is to be calculated in accordance with the
Contract Disputes Act, 41 U.S.C. § 7108(b) (2018)):
Maryland House – DOS owes appellant unpaid rent of $94,355.76, plus interest
calculated from June 8, 2022.1  
PA+CT House – Appellant owes DOS a refund of $108,986.28, plus interest
calculated from August 8, 2022.  
Guam House – Appellant owes DOS a refund of $27,616.40, plus interest calculated
from August 8, 2022.  
Champagne House – Appellant owes DOS a refund of $73,182.93, plus interest
calculated from August 8, 2022.  
DOS’s calculations are consistent with the Board’s previous decision.  Accordingly,
we find that these are the amounts owed by the parties pursuant to the lease following the
termination for convenience.  
Decision
The appeal is GRANTED IN PART.  Appellant owes DOS the net amount of the
amounts set forth above.

1 In our first decision, we incorrectly stated that appellant was entitled to an
additional eighty-three days rent for this property.  Mutakaber, 24-1 BCA at 187,123.  The
correct number of days is eighty-two, and DOS has calculated the rent owed based upon this
correct number.

ORDER 
On January 25, 2007, appellant, Hensley R. Lee Contracting, Inc. (HRL), submitted 
a claim under contract number HSFE04-04-P-4137 to the contracting officer in the amount 
of $1,245,400.  The contracting officer denied the claim, and HRL filed this appeal from that 
decision. 
Subsequently, the parties realized that HRL’s claim was not certified.  They concluded 
that the contracting officer’s decision was a nullity and that the Board did not have 
jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and they jointly moved to dismiss this appeal without 
prejudice. The parties now concur that a dismissal without prejudice is inappropriate since

On September 23, 2020, the parties jointly moved for entry of a stipulated judgment
for the above-captioned appeal, in the amount of $19,000 (settlement amount), to be paid to
appellant, Athena Construction, Inc. (Athena), through the permanent indefinite judgment

Although the Board previously consolidated this appeal with CBCA 6723, this judgment
only pertains to CBCA 6460.


CBCA 6460 2
In their joint motion, the parties stated that the settlement amount is inclusive of all
costs, attorney fees, and interest claimed by Athena, and that Athena waives any further right
it may have to claim for recovery of any interest, attorney fees, costs, or expenses it may
have incurred in conjunction with this appeal.  The parties also stated that they will not seek
reconsideration of, or relief from the Board’s decision, and they will not appeal the decision.
Decision
The Board GRANTS IN PART the appeal.  Athena shall be paid $19,000 inclusive
of all costs, fees, and interest.

CDA, it was agreed that appellant would submit three separate claims seeking separate
contracting officer decisions, that it would assure that each claim was stated in a “sum
certain,” and that three separate appeals from such decisions would be filed.  It was further
agreed that, once the appeals were filed with the Board, the initial appeal (under CBCA 3752)
would be withdrawn and dismissed by the Board with prejudice.  


CBCA 3752 2
The three claims and appeals have been filed and have been docketed by the Board
as CBCA 3809, CBCA 3811, and CBCA 3812.  Per the parties’ agreement, appellant has
filed a voluntary withdrawal of CBCA 3752.  Accordingly, the appeal under CBCA 3752

number SALMEC-05-0020, and its modifications.  The parties entered into a settlement
agreement with respect to the appeal and filed with the Board a stipulation of settlement,
reflecting their amicable resolution of the issues that are the subject of the appeal.  The parties
have jointly moved the Board to issue a judgment in favor of First Kuwaiti in the amount of
$2,547,745.20, to be paid from the permanent indefinite judgment fund, 31 U.S.C. § 1304

paid to First Kuwaiti together with payment of the judgment amount.  First Kuwaiti has
waived any other claim to interest and/or for any attorney fees and expenses incurred in
connection with the appeal.
  
The parties, in their joint motion and under the terms of the stipulation, have agreed
that neither party will seek reconsideration of, or relief from, this Board’s decision under
Board Rules 26 and 27, respectively, and that neither party will appeal this Board’s decision.
