MATTER OF: laniel Riddick


DIGEST:


Employee claims per diem and relocation
expenses incurred while he was purportedly
on detail at the duty station to which he
was officially transferred at the end of
that assignment. Since an administrative
intent to transfer the employee permanently
to that duty station was clearly evident at

that he be detailed to Richmond so that he could locate
permanent quarters there for his family.
