               OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE PROUTY
          ON APPELLANT'S THIRD MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION

       Before the Board is appellant Quality Trust Inc.'s (Quality's) third motion for
reconsideration of our earlier entry of summary judgment against its appeal of the
contracting officer's decision to terminate its contract for default. We granted summary
judgment in favor of the government on 5 May 2016 and denied Quality's first motion
for reconsideration on 29 June 2016 and denied its second motion for reconsideration on
8 September 2016. The present motion was submitted to the Board on 10 October 2016.
We have not requested a response from the government.

       The Board's Rules do not provide for a second motion for reconsideration -- not to
mention, a third. Accordingly, appellant's third motion for reconsideration is denied and
the Recorder is instructed not to accept any further filings by appellant relative to this
appeal. See Clyde P. Thomas, ASBCA No. 28296, 88-3 BCA i! 21, 179 at 106,881.
