Petitioner;

                              UNPUBLISHED DECISION1

       On February 23, 2015, respondent filed a joint stipulation concerning the
petition for compensation filed by Catherine Wolski on July 17, 2013. In her
petition, Ms. Wolski alleged that the influenza (“flu”) vaccine, which is contained
in the Vaccine Injury Table (the “Table”), 42 C.F.R. §100.3(a), and which she
received on August 25, 2011, caused her to suffer vaccine-related neuritis and
neuropathy or Guillain-Barré Syndrome (“GBS”). Petitioner represents that there
has been no prior award or settlement of a civil action for damages on her behalf as
a result of her condition.

      Respondent denies that the vaccines caused petitioner to suffer neuritis,
neuropathy, GBS, or any other injury or condition.

       1
         The E-Government Act of 2002, Pub. L. No. 107-347, 116 Stat. 2899, 2913 (Dec. 17,
2002), requires that the Court post this decision on its website. Pursuant to Vaccine Rule 18(b),
the party has 14 days to file a motion proposing redaction of medical information or other
information described in 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-12(d)(4). Any redactions ordered by the special
master will appear in the document posted on the website.
      Nevertheless, the parties agree to the joint stipulation, attached hereto as
“Appendix A.” The undersigned finds said stipulation reasonable and adopts it as
the decision of the Court in awarding damages, on the terms set forth therein.

       Damages awarded in that stipulation include:

       A lump sum of $5,000.00 in the form of a check payable to petitioner,
       Catherine Wolski. This amount represents compensation for all
       damages that would be available under 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-15(a).

       In the absence of a motion for review filed pursuant to RCFC, Appendix B,
the clerk is directed to enter judgment in case 13-482V according to this decision
and the attached stipulation.2

     Any questions may be directed to my law clerk, Christina Gervasi, at (202)
357-6360.

       IT IS SO ORDERED.

                                                     s/ Christian J. Moran
                                                     Christian J. Moran

       2
          Pursuant to Vaccine Rule 11(a), the parties can expedite entry of judgment by each
party filing a notice renouncing the right to seek review by a United States Court of Federal
Claims judge.
