FINAL DECISION OF DISMISSAL1
Defendants.
This matter came before the court on Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss filed January 9,
2017. On February 16, 2017, Plaintiff’s representative filed a letter stating that “[a]fter meeting
with Mr. Paul Chalmers, a co-defendant in this case for appeal, I have made the decision to
concur with the Department of Revenue’s Motion to Dismiss.” On March 8, 2017, Defendant
filed Department of Revenue’s Response to Plaintiff’s Motion to Withdraw Appeal, stating that
Defendant “has no objection to [P]laintiff’s motion to withdraw its appeal. The Department does
not seek costs and disbursements.” Upon consideration, the court dismisses Plaintiff’s
Complaint. Now, therefore,
IT IS THE DECISION OF THIS COURT that Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss is allowed.
Plaintiff’s Complaint is dismissed.
