DECISION





FILE: B-194258


THE  COMPTROLLER GENERAL
OF   THE UNITED STATES
WASHINGTON, O.C. 20548




       DATE:  December 27, 1979


MATTER OF: Marie L. Leber


DIGEST:


Employee of the Department of the Navy appeals
disallowance by Claims Division of her Taim
for e retroactive temporary promotion from
grade GS-3 to GS-5 on the grounds that she did
not meet experience requirements for promotion
to grade GS-5.  Employee is entitled to promotion
to grade GS-4 in accordance with Mary Lee Groover,
B-190174, April 21, 1978.


     By a letter dated December 15, 1978, Marie L. Leber, appealed
the action of our Claims Division in Certificate of Settlement
Z-2803360, issued October 25, 1978, which disallowed her claim
for a retroactive temporary promotion under our decision Turner-
Caldwell, 55 Comp. Gen. 540 (1975), affirmed, 56 id. 427 (1977).

     The record shows that on October 9, 1974, Ms. Leber, a GS-3
clerk-typist with the Armed Forces Police Detachment, Washington
Navy Yard, was detailed to a GS-5 position. The detail continued
until May 2, 1975. The Claims Division denied Ms. Leber's claim
because, as reported by the agency, she did not meet the require-
ment of Civil Service Commission Handbook X-118, Qualification
Standards for Positions Under the General Schedule (now OPM
Handbook X-118), that she have one year of specialized experience
to qualify for a GS-5 secretarial position. In her appeal
Ms. Leber states that she was detailed to a supervisory clerk-
typist position, GS-322-05, not a secretarial position, GS-318-05.

     We have verified with the Consolidated Civilian Personnel
Office, Washington Navy Yard, that the GS-318 secretarial position
at the Armed Forces Police Detachment was established after the
period of Ms. Leber's detail and that the position to which she
was detailed in 1974 was a GS-322-05 supervisory clerk-typist
position.  Her current personnel office, Civilian Personnel Office,
Fort Myer, Virginia, states that in 1974 Ms. Leber was not qualified
for promotion to a GS-5 clerk-typist position. However, she was
eligible for promotion to a GS-4 clerk-typist position at that time.
