   DANIELS, Board Judge (Chairman).
 
        James B. Day, an  employee of the Internal Revenue  Service,
   asked  the Board to  review his agency's  determination regarding
   reimbursement of  real estate  transaction expenses the  employee
   incurred in purchasing a home at his new duty station following a
   transfer in the interest of the Government.
 
        Upon reviewing the  claim, the agency agreed to  pay most of
   the  contested  expenses.    The employee  agreed  to  accept the
   offered amount in satisfaction  of the claim.  The agency and the
   employee both asked the Board to dismiss the case.
 
        Accordingly, the case is dismissed.
