                        THE  COMPTROLLER GENERAL
DECISION             .  OF   THE   UNITED STATES
                        WASHINGTON, 0  C  20549




FILE:  B-196364       OATE: January 6, 1981


MATTER  OF:


Department of Army Employee Fraudulent
Travel Voucher


DIGEST:


1~joq3'


(1)  Where employee submitted voucher for
     travel expenses and claim for expenses
     of actual subsistence was based on
     misrepresentation and apparent fraud
     regarding meals and lodgings the entire
     claim for actual subsistence expenses
     allowance for days for which fraudulent
     information was submitted is tainted
     by the fraud, and employee is not
     entitled to payment of subsistence
     for those days.

(2)  Where an employee has submitted a
     voucher which is, in part, based
     on fraud, only the separate items
     attributed to the false statements
     are to be disallowed as tainted by
     fraud, and any other amounts may be
     allowed if otherwise proper.

(3)  Employee submitted voucher wherein he
     claimed mileage for local travel in
     the Washington, D.C. area for 97 days
     in connection with extended temporary
     duty assignment. Where agency investi-
     gation establishes that employee was
     in Hawaii for 8 days of period for
     which local mileage has been claimed
     and as employee states that he performed
     round-trip travel to his residence
     in New Jersey on 9 other occasions
     during the period, the circumstances
     and validity of the claim for mileage
     are so doubtful that payment may not
     be allowed.

(4)  Employee on extended temporary duty who
     was authorized round-trip travel from
     his temporary duty station to his resi-
     dence on 7 occasions claims reimbursement
