Pursuant to 11 CAR §25-110(d) (previously codified as Commission Rule 099.13), the Commission may enter an order dismissing a claim for want of prosecution. After my review of the respondent’s motion, the claimant’s failure to respond thereto or appear at the hearing, and all other matters properly before the Commission, I find that claimant has failed to prosecute this claim. Therefore, respondent’s motion to dismiss this claim is hereby granted. This dismissal is without prejudice. IT IS SO ORDERED. _______________________________ GREGORY K.
