OREADY LLC,
Appellant,
v.
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR,
Respondent.
Michael Faro, Partner of OREADY LLC, Las Vegas, NV, appearing for Appellant.
Brian A. Quint, Office of the Solicitor, Department of the Interior, Washington, DC,
counsel for Respondent.
VERGILIO, Board Judge.
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)).
