MD88 AND AN AIRBUS ASSIGNED TO THE SAME RWY HOLD SHORT POINT BY 2 DIFFERENT CTLRS. THE RPTR IN THE MD88 ASSIGNED BY GND AND THE AIRBUS BY LCL. THE RPTR BROKE THE STALEMATE BY TAXIING ON BY THE AIRBUS SINCE HE HAD BEEN CLRED TO THE RWY FOR TKOF.

Narrative

FLT HAD BEEN HELD ON TXWY CC LGA WITH ENGS SHUT DOWN FOR A GND STOP TO ATL DUE TO ZDC. WHEN RELEASED; GND INSTRUCTED US TO TAXI TO RWY 13. WE WERE NEXT FOR TKOF; CHANGED TO TWR FREQ. AN ACR AIRBUS (ACFT Y) WAS APCHING THE SAME SPOT (INTXN OF TXWYS CC AND G) FROM THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION ALONG TXWY G FROM RWY 4/22. SEEING HIM COMING; I STOPPED ON TXWY CC BEFORE ENCROACHING ON TXWY G. THE ACR THEN STOPPED ON TXWY G BEFORE BLOCKING THE INTXN OF TXWY G AND CC. WHILE STOPPED; WE HAD SWITCHED TO TWR FREQ AND CONTINUED COMPLETING CHKLISTS. SINCE THE ACR HAD STOPPED AND WE HAD BEEN CLRED TO TAXI TO THE RWY AS NEXT FOR TKOF; I CONTINUED TO TAXI; ENCROACHING ON TXWY G. AT THIS TIME TWR INSTRUCTED US TO HOLD POS. APPARENTLY; TWR HAD CLRED THE ACR AIRBUS TO THE RWY. TWR THEN ASKED ACR IF HE COULD GET PAST US. HE COULD; BUT UNCOMFORTABLY CLOSE. THE ACR AND A SMALL COMMUTER ACFT (ACFT Z) BEHIND HIM WERE TAXIED TO RWY FOR TKOF. AFTER THAT; WE WERE AGAIN CLRED TO TAXI; THIS TIME BY TWR; TO RWY 13 AND GIVEN TKOF CLRNC. APPARENTLY BOTH THE ACR AND I HAD BEEN CLRED TO TAXI TO RWY 13; BUT BY DIFFERENT CTLRS -- HIM BY THE TWR; AND US BY GND. I BELIEVE BOTH PLTS ACTED CORRECTLY. EVEN THOUGH I HAD CLRNC; WHEN I SAW ANOTHER ACFT APCHING; I STOPPED. HE DID THE SAME THING. SINCE HE HAD STOPPED; AND I HAD CLRNC; I CONTINUED TO TAXI ENCROACHING ON THE TXWY. I DID NOT RECHK THE CLRNC. THERE WAS NO REASON TO. THERE WAS NO QUESTION ABOUT THE CLRNC AND THE OTHER ACFT HAD GIVEN WAY. IT SEEMS THAT ERROR WAS WITH THE CTLRS. APPARENTLY; GND CLRED US TO TAXI TO THE HOLD SHORT POINT OF RWY 13 AND TWR HAD CLRED THE ACR TO THE SAME POINT. I DO NOT KNOW IF THE CONFUSION CAME FROM THE 2 CTLRS NOT COORDINATING OR FROM ONE CTLR GIVING A CLRNC OVER AN AREA THAT WAS NOT IN HIS CTL.
