 FILE: B-195230                        aDATE: Mrch 5, 1981

.MATTER OF: Earl E.M Ginty -Reconsideration of decision
             denying claim for extended detaiJ

 DIGEST: Employee, who was detailed from
         competitive service position to
         excepted service position is not
         entitled to remedy under Turner-
         Caldwell decisions for overlong
         detail since those decisions apply
         only to details covered under Fed-
         eral Personnel Manual, Chapter 300,
         S8-2. B-195230, January 10, 1980,
         affirmed.

     Mr. Earl E. McGinty requests reconsideration of
our decision in B-195230, January 10, 1980, denying
his claim for a retroactive temporary promotion and
backpay incident to an extended detail.

     Mr. McGinty's claim is based on an extended
detail from July 1, 1972, to May 25, 1974, from a
competitive service position to a National Aeronau-
tics and Space Administration (NASA) excepted service
position established under 42 U.S.C. § 2473(b)(2)
(1970). Our prior decision held that Mr. McGinty
was not entitled to the remedy under our Turner-
Caldwell decisions, 55 Comp. Gen. 539 (1975,T
affirmed at 56 Comp. Gen. 427 (1977) for two rea-
sons. First, we held that since our Turner-
Caldwell decisions apply only to details within
the competitive service or the excepted service
under the General Schedule, Mr. McGinty's detail
would not. come within the scope of these decisions.
Second, we held that since Mr. McGinty's detail
did not comply with Civil Service Commission (CSC)
regulations governing appointment of an employee from
the competitive to the excepted service, there is no
remedy for the overlong detail.

     In requesting reconsideration, Mr. McGinty
argues that his situation is quite comparable to our
Turner-Caldwell decisions, and he questions why his
detail does not fall within the scope of our deci-
sions. Mr. McGinty also argues that NASA did comply
with CSC requirements governing movement from the
competitive to the excepted service.
