DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE: March 30, 1993 GSBCA 11912 LIVING TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, Appellant, v. GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION, Respondent. A. Joseph Smith, President of Living Technologies Corporation, Golden, CO, appearing for Appellant. Leigh Ann Holt, Office of the General Counsel, General Services Administration, Washington, DC, counsel for Respondent. NEILL, Board Judge. ORDER On February 6, 1992, the General Services Administration awarded Living Technologies Corporation (Living Tech) a contract for mechanical maintenance of fire alarm systems at the Denver Federal Center, Denver, Colorado. On June 19, the contracting officer terminated the contract for default. Living Tech has appealed this decision. In filing its complaint, Living Tech also sought from GSA $10,196.50 for services rendered under the contract prior to its termination. The Board, however, ruled that this claim would have to be submitted to the contracting officer for a decision before it could be part of this appeal. Appellant thereupon submitted its claim to the contracting officer. On February 26, the Board convened the parties for a status conference on this case. At that time counsel for respondent advised the Board that no decision had been issued on appellant's claim for services rendered. The conference was adjourned to permit the parties to confer. On March 9, in a second status conference, the parties advised the Board that they had settled their dispute. On March 25, the Board received a stipulation for dismissal. Accordingly, pursuant to the agreement of the parties and Rule 28(a), this appeal is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. This dismissal shall be deemed to be "with prejudice" sixty-one days from the date of this order unless a party moves for reinstatement of the case before the expiration of the sixty-day period. ________________________ EDWIN B.
