PARTIES TO DISPUTE:


STATEMENT OF CLAIM: "Claim of M. W. Keenan (/1373) that:

(a) Carrier violated the provisions of the current Clerk's Agreement at Topeka, Kansas when it improperly bulletined position 6251 on March 18, 1986 by using the term 'other duties as may be assigned' or similar words under description of duties, and

(b) Claimant M. W. Keenan shall now be compensated $1,669.92 plus $104.37 for each day after April 15, 1986, and

(c) Claimant M. W. Keenan shall now be compensated interest payable at the prevailing prime rate and any other penalties and awards as may be determined by this Honorable Board."

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.



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.

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 will be dismissed. Furthermore, 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.
