                                ORDER
 
        Safe-T-Play,  Inc.  (appellant) was  awarded  a  contract on
   January  23, 1993,  by the  General  Services Administration  for
   partitioning  and  miscellaneous   services  for  Raleigh,  North
   Carolina, and the surrounding area.  The contract was for  a base
   year  and two option years.  Appellant completed the base year of
   the  contract in January  1994 and was  issued modification P001,
   which   exercised  the  first  option  renewal  period  effective
   January 23,  1994.   Because  the  contract  was  a  construction
   contract, appellant was informed of the necessity  to comply with
   the bonding  requirements of  the contract.   On April  28, 1994,
   respondent terminated  appellant's contract  for default  for its
   alleged failure  to provide  the required  bonding for  the first
   option year.  It is from that decision that appellant appealed to
   this Board on July 26, 1994.
 
        Pursuant  to the Board's  order on further  proceedings, the
   complaint and answer  were filed.  On January 11, 1995, the Board
   convened  the  parties   in  a  conference  to   discuss  further
   scheduling.   The parties agreed to discuss  settlement with each
   other.  The Board advised the parties that it  would convene them
   in  another conference  in early  February to  inquire about  the
   status of their discussions.   On March 7, 1995, before the Board
   had  an  opportunity  to schedule  a  subsequent  conference, the
   parties  filed  a  joint  motion  to  dismiss  this  appeal  with
   prejudice.  Accordingly,  pursuant to motion  of the parties  and
   Rule 28(a), this appeal is DISMISSED.
