   MATTER OF: Glenn E. Silvey -klaim for Backpay
                   for Detail to Higher Grady              c•JD

   DIGEST: Employee, classified as grade GS-13,
             alleges that he performed grade GS-14
             duties in 1969-1970 and that he was
             only paid GS-13 salary. :Ciaim for.
             retroactive promotion wifi- backpay
             is denied. Record fails to indicae
             detail to established higher graded
             position.

     This matter arises from a request for reconsideration of our
Claims Division settlement Z-2706711, dated June 19, 1978, which
denied the claim of Glenn E. Silvey for a retroactive temporary
promotion and backpay.

     Mr. Silvey entered duty as a Special Agent of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation (FBI) in 1951.  4e was promoted to a gradYeGS-3 on
December 24, 1961, and on February 18, 1969, was approved as a field
supervisor in Oklahoma City. He served as a field supervisor until
November 18, 1970, and remained a GS-13 throughout this time. On
November 18, 1970, he was removed from supervisory duties. His field
supervisor position was then filled by an individual who was promoted
to a GS-14 position 90 days after appointment. Mr. Silvey has filed
a claim for retroactive temporary promotion and backpay for the
period February 18, 1969, through November 18, 1970, in accordance
with our decisions in the Turner-Caldwell cases, 55 Comp. Gen. 539
(1975), and 56 Comp. Gen. 427 (1977). He alleges that he was
detailed to an established GS-14 position in excess of 120 days with-
out receiving GS-14 salary. His claim was filed in this Office on
June 29, 1976.

     Section 71a of title 31, United States Code, provides that any
claim not received in the General Accounting Office within 6 years
after the date the claim accrued is barred from consideration. Con-
sequently, the portion of Mr. Silvey's claim which arose prior to
June 29, 1970, cannot be considered.

     At the time of Mr. Silvey's performance of supervisory duties
while a GS-13, the FBI position description for a GS-13 Special Agent
provided that individuals so classified may serve as field super-
visors. In addition, the FBI policy at that time required these
individuals to complete 2 years of continuous full-time supervisory
