MATTER OF: Joseph C. Hutchinson - elocation expenses


DIGEST:


Claimant requests reconsideration of B-182013,
May 14, 1975, denying his claim for travel,
transportation, household goods, shipment
expenses, and real estate expenses incurred
moving his dependents from Washington, D.C.,
to Monterey, California. Claimant had
incurred such expenses in anticipation of
orders after being warned that move was
unauthorized and at his own risk. Decision
is affirmed since examination of claimant's
additional evidence shows no error in fact

DLI, at the Presidio of Monterey, California, at some future
