United States Federal Circuit

In a case involving plaintiff's contract with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to supply and support network monitoring software produced by a third party, under which plaintiff would furnish the software and services via a lease for one base year and three option years, the Court of Federal Claims' grant of summary judgment to the Government is affirmed over plaintiff's challenge to the Government's decision not to exercise the first option year, on grounds that the Government breached the contract by failing to use its best effort to secure funding, where plaintiff failed to show any harm resulting from its claim that the Government had breached the contract.
