Anttonen - Claim for Attorney's Fee for Services and Travel and for Credit Report and Appraisal Fee I. Employee reclaims for reimbursement of attorney's fee denied for lack of itemization of services performed and cost attributable to each. Reim- bursement must be denied again since itemization provided by attorney lacks necessary specificity, and, therefore, may include items which are not properly reimbursable under FTR para. 2-6.2c. 2. Incident to transfer and purchase of residence near new duty station, employee retained attorney whose office was not located in vicinity of new residence. Lmployee was charged $25 travel fee by attorney for travel on two different occasions, one for purpose of searching title and second for recording papers. R-eimbursement therefor may not be allowed since FTR para. 2-6.2c does not contain authority fo ib of aLLorey's travel fee under these circumstances. 3. Employee reclaims for reimbursement of credit report ($25) and appraisal fee ($100) incurred incident to purchase of residence at new duty station. However, FTR para. 2-6.2b and para. 2-6.2d specifically limits reimbursement for an appraisal fee and credit report, respectively, to the amount customarily charged.
