1Opinion of the Court

MICHEL, Chief Judge.

The United States appeals from the judgment of the United States Court of Federal Claims, awarding $48.7 million in damages to First Heights Bank, FSB, Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc., and Pulte Homes, Inc. (collectively, “plaintiffs”). The appeal was submitted after oral argument on July 6, 2005. Because the trial court properly determined liability and damages in this breach of contract action, we affirm.
