                                 ORDER
 
        This  case involves  a dispute  as to  how much  the General
   Services Administration  (GSA) owes  Pat Mathis  Construction Co.
   (Mathis)  for  performing  additional  work  in  connection  with
   removal  and reinstallation  of  columns  and  footings  under  a
   contract for  the  erection of  the United  States Courthouse  in
   Albany, Georgia.   GSA provided $110,000  in advance funding  for
   this  work.    Later,  Mathis  claimed  entitlement  to  $282,179
   (inclusive  of the  $110,000), and  the  GSA contracting  officer
   offered $168,006.
 
        At the joint request of  the parties, a Board judge mediated
   the  dispute.  As a  result of the  mediation, the parties agreed
   that GSA would  pay, and Mathis would accept, a total of $161,684
   plus interest.  Mathis has since been paid.
 
        The  parties  now  ask  that  the  case  be  dismissed  with
   prejudice.
 
        Accordingly, the case is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
