Robert A. Diemer and John B. Kenkel, Hyattsville, Md., for defendant.


THOMSEN, Chief Judge.

This is an action by a bidder on a public contract for rescission of its bid on the ground of unilateral mistake and for recovery of the deposit made therewith. The principal issues are (1) whether plaintiff's bid was revocable after the bids had been opened but before plaintiff's bid was accepted, and (2) whether the mistake was of such grave consequences that it would be unconscionable to allow defendant to forfeit the deposit.
