B-183038 1 (1979-08-29)

handle is hein.gao/gaobabjop0001 and id is 1 raw text is: GAO United States General Accounting Office Washington, DC 20548 Office of General Counsel In Reply Refer to: B-183038 August 29, 1979 The Honorable Robert E. Bauman House of Representative s ./..// b / 4 7/ /'/ Dear Mr. Bauman: i* 0 This is in response to your letter of June 22, 1979, d6 to Mr. Daniel Leary of our Claims Division, concerning A // your constituent, Mrs. Evelyn Slowick. Mrs. Slowick's case was closed by a letter dated April 17, 1978, when the General Counsel informed Mrs. Slowick that she was not entitled to additional compensation. No further action is contemplated in this matter. The quote in Mrs. Slowick's letter to you dated May 29, 1979, indicating that the General Counsel is giving further consideration to her case is taken from a Certificate of Settlement issued by our Claims Division on July 8, 1977. The letter of April 17, 1978, was the result of that further consideration. It appears that Mrs. Slowick became confused by the fact that a copy of the Certificate of Settlement was enclosed - with the letter of April 17, 1978. She apparently misunderstood and believed that we informed her on April 17, 1978, that her case was still under consideration. We are enclosing copies of the above correspondence as well as a copy of a subsequent letter to you from our Office of Congressional Relations dated Iay 11, 1978, which responded to your inquiry of May 5, 1978. With that letter you forwarded a letter from Mrs. Slowick dated April 27, 1978, wherein she seems to have expressed a belief that this Office had discriminated against her because of her age. This apparently is because in our decision, Matter of Evelyn S. Slowick, B-183038, May 9, 1975, (copy enclosed), in which we awarded her back pay consisting of the difference between the salary she received from the District of Columbia and the salary she would have received in the Canal Zone, the back pay ended at the time she would have been mandatorily retired by the Canal Zone Government June 30, 1969, at age 62. The early retirement of Canal Zone employees is required 06703
