DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE: April 6, 2016 CBCA 4008, 5206 AULET CONTRACTING, INC., Appellant, v. DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS, Respondent. Kevin M. Cox of Camardo Law Firm, P.C., Auburn, NY, counsel for Appellant. Jennifer Hedge, Office of General Counsel, Department of Veterans Affairs, Pittsburgh, PA, counsel for Respondent. DANIELS, Board Judge (Chairman). ORDER The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) contracted with Aulet Contracting, Inc. (Aulet) for the installation of a sprinkler system at the VA hospital in Northport, New York. The VA terminated the contract for the convenience of the Government. Aulet then submitted a termination settlement proposal in the amount of $1,040,546.37 and, five months later, converted the proposal into a claim. The contractor appealed from the contracting officer’s deemed denial of the claim, and the Board docketed the appeal as CBCA 4008. Subsequently, the contracting officer decided that Aulet was entitled to $832,000. The contractor appealed that decision as well, and this appeal was docketed as CBCA 5206. CBCA 4008, 5206 2 Aulet has now moved the Board to dismiss both cases with prejudice, stating that the parties have settled their dispute. Accordingly, CBCA 4008 and CBCA 5206 are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. _________________________ STEPHEN M. DANIELS Board Judge
