DIGEST: Denial of claims for payment for pies and plates allegedly delivered to several vessels of the United States Navy is sustained because claimant did not meet burden of producing clear and satisfactory factual evidence to support claims. Therefore the claims are of doubtful validity and must be disallowed. This decision is in response to requests by Table Talk, Inc. for reconsideration of our Transportation and Claims Division's settlements of March 20 and 28, 1975, which disallowed Table Talk's claims for payment for pies and plates allegedly delivered to several vessels of the United States Navy. The subject of the Transportation and Claims Division's settlement dated March 20, 1975, was Table Talk's claim for pay- ment of $724.10 for items allegedly delivered to the USS TINGSA, USS GREENLING, USS GATO, and USS TRIPPE in 1969, 1970, and 1971. The claim was denied because it appeared that Table Talk had failed to claim payment until 1974, subsequent to the destruction of Navy Food Service records pursuant to NAVSUP Publication 486, and because Table Talk, Inc. had not furnished satisfactory evi- dence of delivery and nonpayment. In response to the March 20, 1975 settlement, Table Talk supplied this Office with copies of rebilling letters purportedly sent to the USS TINOSA, USS GREENLING, USS GATO, and USS TRIPPE in 1973. However, the Commanding'Officer of the USS GATO stated in a November 15, 1974 letter to the Commanding Officer of the Navy Regional Finance Center, that no delinquent notices had been rece ed during the previous 3 years. The delivery receipts for the items allegedly supplied to the USS TRIPPE and USS TINOSA are so poorly reproduced that it is impossible to read invoice num- bers, prices, quantities, or signatures acknowledging receipt.
