Key legal question
Whether the appeal became moot because the insurer reconsidered its refusal to enter into the objection
Extracted holding
Yes. The insurer's submissions showed that it fully granted the appellant's request by reconsidering the refusal to enter into the objection, so the appeal had become moot and the case had to be struck out.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 53(3) LPGA, an insurer may reconsider a challenged decision until its response is sent to the appellate authority. If the reconsideration fully satisfies the appeal, the appeal loses its object and the file is removed from the docket.
