OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE MCILMAIL ON APPELLANT'S MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION

Appellant, prose, has submitted an email dated 19 September 2014 that we interpret as a motion for reconsideration of our 4 August 2014 denial of this appeal. Board records establish that appellant received the Board's 4 August 2014 decision (that was sent by email) 1 no later than 7 August 2014. Board Rule 20 (revised 21 July 2014) requires the filing of a motion for reconsideration within 30 days of receipt of the decision for which reconsideration is sought (as did prior Rule 29). Appellant's motion was not filed within that 30-day time limit and must be dismissed as untimely. Program and Construction Management Group, Inc., ASBCA No. 47048, 95-1 BCA ~ 27,413, aff'd, 64 F.3d 676 (Fed. Cir. 1995) (per curiam) (table).

Appellant's motion for reconsideration is dismissed.

Dated: 24 September 2014
