                       GILROY-SIMS & ASSOCIATES,
 
                                                Appellant,
 
                                   v.
 
                    GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION,
 
                                                 Respondent.
 
        Jerald S. Howe,  Jr. of Steptoe  & Johnson, Washington,  DC,
   counsel for Appellant.
 
        Marie N.  Adamson, Senior Assistant General Counsel, General
   Services Administration, Washington, DC, counsel for Respondent.
 
   BORWICK, Board Judge.
 
                                 Order
 
        This case involves a  petition filed under the Equal  Access
   to  Justice  Act  (EAJA)  for   attorney  fees  and  expenses  of
   $27,071.90.  We  denied the  petition because  we considered  the
   position of  the agency to  be substantially justified.   Gilroy-
   Sims & Associates  v. General Services Administration,  GSBCA No.
   11501-C(10504)  (June  18, 1992).    The United  States  Court of
   Appeals  for the  Federal  Circuit  disagreed  and  reversed  and
   remanded to the Board "to determine the amount of EAJA attorney's
   fees and expenses due Gilroy-Sims."  Gilroy-Sims & Associates  v.
   Austin,  No. 92-1439,  slip op. at  7 (Fed. Cir.  March 5, 1993).
   After issuance of the circuit  court's mandate of March 26, 1993,
   the Board asked  (among other things) if the  parties had settled
   the question of amount.  
 
        On April 9, the parties  submitted to the Board a settlement
   stipulation  and joint  motion to  dismiss with  prejudice.   The
   parties have  agreed  to a  Government  payment to  appellant  of
   $27,071.90.   As  the parties  have  settled the  amount of  EAJA
   attorney fees and  expenses due Gilroy-Sims, the  circuit court's
   mandate has been satisfied.  Pursuant to Rule 28(a)(1), this case
   is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
