              ORDER OF DISMISSAL FOR FAILURE TO PROSECUTE

       By letter dated 2 March 2015, appellant filed notices of appeal in this and a
related but unconsolidated appeal, ASBCA No. 59898, which was docketed separately
on 23 March 2015. When the Board did not receive a filing from appellant in ASBCA
No. 59869, it issued an Order, dated 5 May 2015, directing appellant to file its
complaint by 26 May 2015, or immediately advise the Board how much more time
was needed and why. Appellant was advised that failure to comply with the Board's
Order could result in the Board ordering appellant to show cause why the appeal
should not be dismissed pursuant to Board Rule 17 for failure to prosecute. The Board
received no response from appellant.

      By Order dated 4 June 2015, the Board directed appellant to either file a
complaint or show cause why the appeal should not be dismissed for failure to
prosecute within 21 days of the date of the Order. Appellant received the Show Cause
Order on 9 June 2015. The Board has received no response from appellant.

        Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed with prejudice under Board Rule 17 for
failure to prosecute.
