Page 2 Docket No. CL-32094

The organization on Page 2 of its Submission to the Board
presented the following facts pertaining to this case:
"Claimant Schiralli, seniority November 7, 1988, was an
unassigned Ticket/Baggage Clerk at Rochester, New York,
when this dispute arose. As a matter of record, Claimant
was called at 8:00 a.m. Wednesday, March 24, 1993 to fill
in as a ticket clerk for one Sheldon Johnson. According
to his note to the local representative (TCU Exhibit A)
he logged in at 11:05 a.m. and worked until 7:01 p.m. on
the 24th. The next day, March 25 - the day involved in
this dispute - Ticket Clerk Lear marked off from her 7:00
a.m. - 3:30 p.m. assignment. Claimant Shiralli was not
called to relieve the assignment. Clerk Payne was used.
His letter of January 18, 1994, to District Chairman
Jones states, while called at 8:30 a.m. to relieve Lear,
he did not arrive in Rochester to cover the job until
11:00 a.m. (TCU Exhibit B)."
The above facts do not coincide with the claim before this
Board. In its "Statement of Claim" the organization avers junior
Clerk Donius was called to work, not Clerk Payne. Second, the
letter submitted as TCU Exhibit B covers an incident that occurred
in January 1994 and has nothing to do with the claim dates of March
25, 1993.
The facts as submitted to this Board are inconsistent and,
therefore, this Board is precluded from reaching a decision cn its
merits.
AWARD
Claim dismissed.
ORDER
This Board, after consideration of the dispute identified
above, hereby orders that an award favorable to the Claimant (s) not
be made.
