     Mrs. Clarine B. Wynn, formerly an employee of the Defense
Ounply Agency, through her attorney, has requested reconsidera-
tion of Comptroller General decision fatter of Wynn, B-203008,
July 7, 1981, denying her claim for a retroactive promotion and

Mrs. Wynn's claim is based upon our Turner-Caldwell decisions,
55 Comp. Gen. 539 (11:75), sustained in 56 Comp. Gen. 427 (1977),
which held that employees who were retailed to higher grade
positions more than 120 drys without prior approval of the United
Statea Civil Service C,,aaisston (now office of Personnel Manage-

on the 121st day of the detail. Mrs. Wynn's claim was previously
denied on the grounds that she did not provide sufficient docu-

duties of the GS-7 position to which she alleged she was detailed.

     Recently, the United States Colrc of Claims decided in
Wilson v. United States, Ct. Cl. No. 324-81C, Order, October 23,
