FINDINGS:
The Third Division of the Adjustment Board upon the whole record
and all the evidence, finds that:
The carrier or carriers and the employe or employes involved in this
dispute are respectively carrier and employes within the meaning of the
Railway Labor Act as approved June 21, 1934.
This Division of the Adjustment Board has jurisdiction over the
dispute involved herein.
Parties to said dispute waived right of appearance at hearing thereon.
As Third Party in Interest, the Brotherhood of Railway, Airline and
Steamship Clerks was advised of the pendency of this dispute and filed a
Submission with the Division.
At the outset, we note that the Claimant has other Claims, see Third
Division Award Nos. 26973, 26976, 26985, 26987 and 26988, for the same period.

Beyond such defect, the facts indicate that no conference was held as
required by Rule 47 of the Agreement and the Railway Labor Act. For the
reasons set forth in Third Division Award 26749, the Claim must be dismissed.
Petitioner's arguments with respect to the time limits are not
supported by the record. Finally, even if the merits could be reached, we can
find nothing in the applicable Agreement between the Carrier and BRAC which
supports the Claimant's position that such Agreement was violated.
