ASBCA Declares Material Breach, Allows Contractor To Stop Work
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 09.07.04
In a declaratory action in SUFI Network Servs., Inc. (Aug. 18, 2004), the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals agreed with the contractor supplying telephone services to Air Force lodgings in Germany that the Air Force had improperly directed it to allow lodging guests to use their calling cards from the contractor's phones and thereby avoid paying long-distance charges to the contractor. Because this resulted in a significant diminution of the contractor's revenues, the board also found the AF direction to be a material breach which allows the contractor to stop work and collect lost profit damages.

New Post Appeals Mediation Pilot Program
On October 1, 2025, the IRS Independent Office of Appeals launched a two-year pilot program to make Post Appeals Mediation (PAM) more attractive and accessible to taxpayers. See IRS Announcement 2025-10. The new PAM pilot program offers taxpayers the opportunity to be assigned to a new Appeals team, which is otherwise unconnected to the underlying case, who will represent the original Appeals team in the mediation session. The assignment of the new Appeals team does not begin a new appeals process but rather is intended to help facilitate an expedited and impartial look at the underlying case with the goal of further exploring all potential paths to resolution prior to litigation.
