                                 ORDER
 
        On  May 23,  1994, appellant,  PRO/DES, Inc., was  awarded a
   contract by respondent, the General Services  Administration, for
   the supply of  Federal Supply Class  5120 - Caulking  Tools.   On
   November  21, 1994, respondent terminated for  default one of the
   purchase   orders  under   appellant's  contract   alleging  that
   appellant  failed  to  deliver the  caulking  guns  within ninety
   calendar days  after receipt  of the order,  as specified  in the
   contract.   On  December  19,  1994,  respondent  terminated  for
   default six more  purchase orders under appellant's  contract for
   the alleged failure of appellant to supply caulking guns that met
   the federal specifications  outlined in its contract.   Appellant
   appealed both  of those  decisions to this  Board on  January 17,
   1995,  and they  were docketed  as GSBCA  13165 and  GSBCA 13166,
   respectively.   On  March  7,  1995,  respondent  terminated  for
   default   the   remaining  outstanding   purchase   orders  under
   appellant's contract for the alleged failure of appellant to make
   the  caulking  guns  available   for  inspection  by  respondent.
   Appellant filed a notice  of appeal of this decision on  April 4,
   1995, which was docketed as GSBCA 13230.  All  three appeals were
   consolidated, as  they all involve  common questions of  fact and
   law and relate  to the termination  of different purchase  orders
   under the same contract.
 
 
        On July  14, 1995, the  Board convened a conference  call to
   schedule   further  proceedings  in  the  appeals.    During  the
   conference, appellant's representative advised the  Board that he
   did  not  wish to  continue  to  prosecute  GSBCA 13230  and  was
   withdrawing that  appeal.  On August 9, 1995, appellant confirmed
   this  in writing.   Accordingly,  pursuant to  Rule 28(a),  GSBCA
   13230 is  DISMISSED.  The  parties will continue to  proceed with
   GSBCA  13165 and  13166  as outlined  in  the Board's  conference
   memorandum dated July 14, 1995.
