     MATTER  OF:  Sea-Land Service, Inc.


     DIGEST:
          Where GAO renders decision in response
          tospecific  expression of interest from
          court of competent jurisdiction, recon-
          sideration request filed by interested
          party is dismissed--without considera-
          tion on merits--because court has not
          indicated an interest in our reconsid-
          eration of decision.


          Sea-Land Service, Inc. (Sea-Land),;requests
     reconsideration of oir decision in the -:tter of
     Foss Alaska Line, 57 Comp. Gin.     (8-192149,
     September, 12, 1978).. That decisIon was rendered
     in response to an exprersion of interest from th
     Un.ted States District Court for the District of
     New Jersey in connection with civil action No. 78-
     1223, entitled Sea-Land Servicer Inc. v. Brown, et al.
     The court's consent order filed on July 11, 1978,
     outlined a specific timetable for all permissible
     actions of the parties and stated that there shall
     be no further submissions to our Office. We can
     find no reference, express or implied, to a possible
     requeit for reconsideration in the conser'

          On September 22, 1978, a hearing was held in
     the court on this matter and we-have reviewed
     a copy of the transcript. During the hearing,
     the court was advised by counsel for the Navy that
     our Office would not reconsider the earlier decision
     without a clear expression of interest from the
     court. At  that time the court did not express an
     interest in our reconsidering the matter. A further
     hearing on the 'matter was held on October 3, 1978;
     however, there was no indication that the court
     expected a reconsideration by our Office.
