Hestand Overcharge Claims Adjuster '*~ '~'~{ * Pvhi ½ ¼ ~ *~** * a /1: Gentlemen; We refer again to your letterof December 11, 1979, requesting review of action taken by the General Services Administration (GSA), in collecting by deduction, $475.36 from Yellow Freight SytiteN, Inc, (Yellow), for overch&rges that were collected by Draawell Motor Freight Lines, Inc., for the transportation of a shipment of propellant nitrogen tetroxide from Vicksburg, Mississippi, to Van N1tys, California, under Government bill of lading (GBL) K-5405056. The GBL was issued on November 15, 1976, and fraswell filed a petition for an arrangement under the Federal Bank- ruptcy Act on Decembur 2, 1976. Their Notice of Overcharge was bent by GSA to Yellow pn the theory that Yellow was managing Braswell's operations. GSA's report indicates that the Administration now agrees that since the shipmen'rt was transported prior to the filing date of the petition, Yellow is not liable for the overcharge, and the deduction from monies due Yellow was improper. There- fore, it would appear that if the claim is otherwise proper, the amount claimed will be allowed. For these reasons your request for review by the Comptroller General Is dismissed as moot. Sincerely yours, L. Mitchell Dick Assistant General Counsel is'., 1~~~ 4 i I I ~ U A 1 ~r, , I 4.1-6 I I
