The long GRB 230520A (MAXI/GSC detection: Umeki et al.,
GCN Circ. 33831) was detected in the ground analysis of the CALET
Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) data around 05:03:24 UTC on 20
May 2023 (referenced to GCN Circ 33831).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.
The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts
at T-82.9 sec, peaks at T+9.0 sec, and ends at T+34.9 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 98.1 +/- 4.3 sec
and 67.5 +/- 3.7 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.
The ground-processed light curve is available at

The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by
the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at Waseda University.
