Case No. 2011 SW 030084 .. 

. Respondent 

ORDER DISMISSING PROCEEDING 

On August 9, 2012, an Order Setting Rule 16 Litigation Scheduling Conference, 

and Directing Rule 26(f) Planning and Submission was filed.· 

On August 13, 2012 the Respondent filed a one-pag~ letter requesting an update 

on the status of the case. In this letter the Respondent asserted that on July 30, 2012 the 

FAA had filed a Notice of Withdrawal of Complaint. 

On August 13, 2012 the Office of Hearings (OH) staff reviewed all the filed 

documents in this case, and also did a computer a search of the FDMS public website, for 

all documents that had been posted by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Hearing 

Docket. The results ofthe.OH staff review and search demonstrated that the FAA had 

not filed any Notice of Withdrawal with the OH nor had the U.S. Department.'of 

Transportation'·s Hearing Docket posted any such filing. That same day, the OH clerical 

staff contacted the Respondent and asked the Respondent to provide a copy of the FAA's 

July 30, 2012 Notice of Withdrawal of Complaint. The Respondent promptly emailed a 

copy to the OH clerical staff. The FAA's July 30, 2012 Notice of Withdrawal included a 

Certificate of Service which· showed that the FAA had not served the Office'ofHearings 

with the Notice. 

On August 13, 2012 the Respondent notified the Office of Hearings ofthe FAA's 

July 30, 20i2 Notice of Withdrawal. No Hearings are currently setin this matter. 

It Is Hereby Ordered: 

1) The Rule 16 Litigation Scheduling Conference, currently set on No~ember 1, 

2012 (1:30pm EST) is hereby cancelled. The Rule 26(f) submission deadline 

is also cancelled.
