As a result, respondent filed \na motion to dismiss this claim on February 7, 2023.  A hearing on respondent’s motion \nwas scheduled for April 17, 2023.  Notice of the hearing was sent to claimant by certified \nmail and was delivered on March 9, 2023.  Claimant did not appear at the hearing and \nhas  not  responded  to  the  respondent’s  motion.    Counsel  for  respondent  indicated  that \nclaimant  had  contacted  their  office  and  indicated  that  she  had  no  objection  to  the \n\nBeeney – H204469 \n \n2 \n \ndismissal and would not be attending the hearing. \n After  my  review  of  the  respondent’s  motion,  the  claimant’s  failure  to  respond \nthereto,  and all  other  matters  properly  before  the  Commission,  I  find  that  respondent’s \nmotion to dismiss this claim should be and hereby is granted.  This dismissal is pursuant \nto Commission Rule 099.13 and it is without prejudice. \n IT IS SO ORDERED. \n \n \n      _____________________________________ \n       GREGORY K.
