PER CURIAM:
In this claim, submitted for decision upon the pleadings, claimant seeks payment of the sum of $4,875.00 for services provided by the claimant to Huttonsville Correctional Center.
The respondent, in its Answer, admits that the claim is valid, but further states that there were no funds remaining in its appropriation for the fiscal year in question from which the obligation could have been paid.
While we feel that this is a claim which in equity and good conscience should be piad, we are also of the opinion that an award cannot be made, based on our decision in Airkem Sales and Service, et al. v. Department of Mental Health, 8 Ct.Cl. 180 (1971).
Claim disallowed.
