Claimant represented at the time by Jarid M.

Claimant did not appear in person at the hearing on June 13, 2023.   \nI find it has been more than six months since prior to this hearing and that no request for a \nhearing has been made in this file.  After my review of the Respondent’s motion, the Claimant’s lack \nof response and failure to attend the hearing for the Respondent’s motion, as well as all other matters \n\nTurner-H205385 \n \n2 \n \nproperly before the Commission, I find that Respondent’s Motion to Dismiss this claim should be \nand hereby is granted.
