Highlights
An advance decision was requested with regard to an employee's claim for expenses incurred for settlement of an unexpired lease incident to a change of permanent duty station. The employee may not be reimbursed for lease-breaking expenses since he failed to furnish a copy of the lease. The employee may not be reimbursed for the expense of obtaining a signed copy of the lease since that was not a normal lease-breaking expense. An unsigned copy of the garage lease was not sufficient documentation to support the expense of lease-breaking and may not be considered as evidence of the terms of the lease for the apartment which was broken at the same time.
