 PARTIES TO DISPUTE:

STATEMENT OF CLAIM: "Claim of J. A. Marchese (1/395) that:

 (a) Carrier violated the rules of the current clerk's Agreement when it failed to properly bulletin positions #6236 by using the term 'and related duties' under description of job, and

 (b) J. A. Marchese shall now be compensated $2,721.04 plus $97.18 for each day after May 26, 1986, and

 (c) J. A. Marchese shall now be compensated interest payable at the prevailing prime rate and any other damages 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.

 At the outset, we note that the Claimant has other claims for the same period. This Board has consistently held that pyramiding, compounding and duplicating claims cannot be supported. For this reason alone, the Claim warrants dismissal.

 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.
