OPINION
ALLEGRA, Judge:
In this contract case, Philip Emiabata, d/b/a NOVA EXPRESS (Nova Express) challenges the decision of the United States Postal Service (USPS) to terminate for default his mail delivery contract. Defendant moves for summary judgment under RCFC 56, claiming that the default was proper based on Nova Express’ failure to obtain the contractually-required liability insurance. Finding that there are no genuine issues of material fact, the court concludes that defendant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
