    MATTER OF:

    DIGEST:
                Employee whose authorized leave of absence away
                from his permanent duty station is temporarily
                interrupted because he is ordered to perform
                temporary duty at another place, and employee
                who returns to his headquarters to resume leave
                would only be entitled to the difference between
                the cost attributable to the temporary duty and
                what it would cost the employee to return to his
                headquarters direct from the place of leave.

     This action is in response to a request from a certifying officer
