Dear Mr. Jeffcoat:

This responds to your request of September 30, 1985, for
relief under section 3528(b)(1) of title 31 of the United
States Code for Army Finance and Accounting Officer D.G.
Ingalsbe for a $375 loss resulting from an improper payment.
For the reasons given below, the account in question must now
be regarded as settled and there is no longer a need for us

 it. By letter dated June 11, 1980, from MDO Productions to
 the Finance Office, MDO indicated it had not received a
 check from the Finance Office, but again stated that Lieuten-
 ant        had paid it $375 for the band, ana requested the
 Finance Office to reimburse him for the payment. On either
 June 5 or June 17, 1980, the Finance and Accounting Oftice's
 disbursing officer forwarded a stop payment request to the
 Treasury for the May 19 check.

 On July 17, 1980, Treasury issued a replacement check for
 $375 to De Geronomo People c/o the Finance and Accounting
 Office, Fort Ord, California, presumably on the basis of the
