               File No. 60-12-1477


L~CL~ -_D


     This is in response to your claim, submitted jointly by you and
your insured, Mr. Sheldon Glatt, for property damage amounting to
$595.66 resulting from an accident on June 13, 1979, in New York City
involving Mr. Hodge Herry, an employee of the General Accounting Office.
Mr. Glatt is claiming the $200 deductible under his insurance policy
and you are claiming $395.66, the amount you paid Mr. Glatt under the
policy. The claims are treated jointly.

     The record shows that the accident occurred when Mr. Herry, the
GAO driver, stopped his car, placed it in park and got out to ask di-
rections. The Government vehicle rolled backwards about 4 car lengths
and struck Mr. Glatt's parked car, damaging the right side of the auto-
mobile. Both cars were unoccupied at the time of the collision and
there were no witnesses present. There was no damage to the government
vehicle.

     Under an agreement with your insured, your company is claiming full
recovery for the $395.66 paid by you to him for damages to his automobile
as well as the $200 deductible claimed by Mr. Glatt under his policy.

     An examination of the evidence indicates that you and your insured
are entitled to the amount of $595.66 representing the total costs of
repairs; that is, the $200 deductible claimed by your insured and the
$395.66 paid by you to him for the damages to his automobile. A check
in the amount of $595.66 will be issued payable jointly to GEICO and
to Mr. Glatt and will be sent to 1Mr. Glatt shortly.

     Please be advised that section 2672, United States Code, which
authorizes the settlement of claims of this type, provides that:
