handle is hein.gao/gaobacuwr0001 and id is 1 raw text is: UNITED STATES GENERAL ACCOUNTING OFFICE WASHINGTON, D.C. 20548 OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL In Reply Refer to: B-204409(JAB) September 15, 1981 The Honorable Stuart E. Schiffer Acting Assistant Attorney General Civil Division U.S. Department of Justice Washington, D.C. 20530 Attention: David Epstein, Director Commercial Litigation Branch Dear Mr. Schiffer: Subject:/ William C. Ragland v. United States Court of Claims No. Appeal 55-81 'km)) Reference:, SES:DE:GEHarris:sls, 154-A55-81 We refer to your recent letter requesting a report on the above-captioned action. Through his attorney, Mr. Ragland has filed a claim for salary retention with our Claims Group. We note that the Merit Systems Protec- tion Board dismissed his claim on jurisdictional grounds. It appears that his appeal of this action to the Court of Claims was made to preserve his appeal rights. Our Claims Group is prepared to issue a settlement denying Mr. Ragland's claim, and we have enclosed a copy of the proposed settlement. Although we normally will not take action when a matter is pending in court, we think, in light of the circumstances surrounding this case, that our Claims Group should proceed with its settle- ment. We will of course wait for your concurrence before advising our Claims Group to do so. In addition to the proposed settlement we have enclosed the documents submitted to our Claims Group and copies of several of our recent decisions in this area.
